Lake Tahoe is a large freshwater lake in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, straddling the border of California and Nevada. It’s known for its beaches and ski resorts. On the southwest shore, Emerald Bay State Park contains the 1929 Nordic-style mansion Vikingsholm. Along the lake’s northeast side, Lake Tahoe Nevada State Park includes Sand Harbor Beach and Spooner Lake, a gateway to the long-distance Tahoe Rim Trail. ― Google
Lake Tahoe is a large freshwater lake in the Sierra Nevada of the United States. Lake Tahoe is a major tourist attraction in both Nevada and California. It is home to winter sports, summer outdoor recreation, and scenery enjoyed throughout the year. Snow and ski resorts are a significant part of the area's economy and reputation. The Nevada side also offers several lakeside casino resorts, with highways providing year-round access to the entire area.
Lying at 6,225 ft (1,897 m), it straddles the state line between California and Nevada, west of Carson City. Lake Tahoe is the largest alpine lake in North America, and at 122,160,280 acre⋅ft (150.7 km3) it trails only the five Great Lakes as the largest by volume in the United States. Its depth is 1,645 ft (501 m), making it the second deepest in the United States after Crater Lake in Oregon (1,949 ft or 594 m).
The lake was formed about two million years ago as part of the Lake Tahoe Basin, and its modern extent was shaped during the ice ages. It is known for the clarity of its water and the panorama of surrounding mountains on all sides. The area surrounding the lake is also referred to as Lake Tahoe, or simply Tahoe. More than 75% of the lake's watershed is national forest land, being the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit of the United States Forest Service.

Halo. I am from Morocco in North Africa. Morocco is the first country to recognize America. I saw the video that was posted on KZread. It is a great video. The area is very beautiful, all of it is forests and the wonderful lake. Thank you very much.

Patches in the road ❤️❤️
Thanks for the ride. I started going up to Tahoe, and specifically, to Fallen Leaf Lake (FLL), in 1945, spent my summers up there until Army time in 1963, and there after periodically, the last time in 2017. The stretch from the intersection of Hwy 89 and 50 at the Y to just beyond Camp Richardson is farther than I recall; I walked that stretch and into FLL in 1980. It was great to see old landmarks again.
This video really brings back my memory. We made a long trip from Las Vegas to Lake Tahoe on that day. It was the beautiful twilight time after sunset when we arrived at Lake Tahoe.
This is why I would love to visit California. It's the nature for me.
That was cool
So beautyful
Che posto fantastico. Ho visto e camminato sul questo lago, ancora oggi non dimentico la bellezza di un fantastico posto come questo. Grazie di questo filmato.
Imagine a time when Lake Tahoe was even more beautiful than in this video. I grew up in San Francisco and spent summers up at Tahoe and remember how the mountains were snow capped in the summer. Wonderful memories of camping at Sugar Pine Point State Campground.
I remember when I traveled there when I was 8 years old, it was my first time in the United States and I will never forget that trip. My family rented a bungalow and we spent Christmas there, I had never seen snow and it was a very magical moment, in addition to making snowmen and climbing a sled. It was an incredible trip and now with my 21 years I still have the desire to return there, I hope that in 2022 I can return. Greetings from Peru 🇵🇪🇺🇸
Lol the sound of your engine reminds me of the scary truck from Steven Spielberg's "Duel" 😉
