“Life was meant for good friends and great adventures.” ~ Unknown
Sand Harbor was beautiful despite the surrounding smokey haze. Our friends the Froelichs drove us up into this beautful Eastern side of the Lake Tahoe and we walked along the boardwalk that follows the shoreline.
Here are some fun facts.
~Lake Tahoe is the 2nd deepest lake in U.S at 1,645ft.
~2/3 of the lake is in California and 1/3 is in Nevada
~It’s 12 miles wide and 22 miles long.
~At the surface, Lake Tahoe’s water temperature varies from 41 to 68 degrees F. Below a depth of 600 to 700 ft, the water remains a constant 39 degrees.
~If you were to pour Lake Tahoe out onto an area the size of California, the water would still be 14 inches (36 cm) deep.
~The amount of water in Lake Tahoe (39 trillion gallons) is enough to supply each person in the U.S. with 50 gallons of water per day for 5 years.
