Lake Tahoe, which holds enough water to cover the entire state of California to a depth of 14 inches, was named "Big Water" by the Washoe Indians. The water in Lake Tahoe is 97% pure, nearly the same as distilled water. Remarkably clear and deep blue, the lake is 22 miles long and 12 miles wide. Its average depth is 989 feet and the deepest point is 1,645 feet, making Tahoe the third deepest lake in North America.
The "lake in the sky," at the elevation of 6,229 feet, lies in a valley between the main Sierra Nevada and an eastern offshoot, the Carson Range. The mountains rise more than 4,000 above the resort-lined shore.
Most of the surrounding area is within Eldorado, Tahoe and Toiyabe national forests.
South Lake Tahoe has a population of 21,600 on its elevation of 6,254 feet. Please feel free to request for Real Estate Information in South Lake Tahoe in Northern California.
