Lake Tahoe is located on the biggest plateau in North of America area. The depth is 501 meters and Lake Tahoe is the deepest lake number two in United States after Crater Lake, that located in Oregon with its depth 593 meters.
The legend of Lake Tahoe – like people said – was created by evil spirit that chasing an honest and kind-hearted Indian. After the Indian had no way out, then “The Great Spirit” helped him by giving a pile of leaves while saying “If you drop one leave, then it will make a puddle that will make the evil spirit afraid of”. The Indian with fear dropped all the leaves and the land become a big lake that now called Tahoe or widely known as Big Water by Washoe Tribe. Washoe Tribe is a local Indian who leaves around Lake Tahoe.
