Nature and stuff, 2005

LAKE TAHOE, Oct 05

I took these photos in the Emerald Bay area.







Lake Tahoe is the second deepest lake in the United States, with a maximum depth of 1,645 feet (501 m),[1][2] trailing only Oregon's Crater Lake at 1,949 ft (594 m).[2] Tahoe is also the 16th deepest lake in the world, and the fifth deepest in average depth.[3][2] It is about 22 mi (35 km) long and 12 mi (19 km) wide and has 72 mi (116 km) of shoreline and a surface area of 191 square miles (490 km2).

Approximately two-thirds of the shoreline is in California. The south shore is dominated by the lake's largest city, South Lake Tahoe, California, which adjoins the town of Stateline, Nevada, while Tahoe City, California is located on the lake's northwest shore. Although highways run within sight of the lake shore for much of Tahoe's perimeter, many important parts of the shoreline now lie within state parks or are protected by the United States Forest Service.

THE ALBANY BULB, Oct 2005

The Albany Bulb is basically an abandoned landfill with tons of gorilla art, homeless folks, skaters, dog walkers and people checkin it out. Not only are there tons of building supplies on land , there is also shit that drifts on shore from the Bay like wood, boats, trash, foam, and plastic.
































4-WHEELIN' NEVADA, Oct 05
