  • Fallen Leaf Lake Trail Access and Travel Management Proposed Action
    United States Forest Lake Tahoe Basin Management 35 College Drive Department of Service Unit South Lake Tahoe, CA 96150 Agriculture (530) 543-2600 (530) 543-0956 TTY Proposed Action for Fallen Leaf Lake Trail Access and Travel Management Project US Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit El Dorado County, California Desired Condition The desired condition of the project area is a planned system of interconnected, environmentally sustainable trails to serve the entire spectrum of non-motorized recreational and commuting users. Measures to achieve this desired condition include reduced sediment loads, reduced and controlled stormwater runoff, and construction and/or adopting trail segments to provide trail connections to features and destinations. Implementing these retrofits will increase the quality, safety, and accessibility of the recreation experience for all visitors to the Fallen Leaf Lake trail system and help protect the natural, cultural, and historic resources of the area. Background/Existing Conditions The project area is currently one of the largest recreational usage areas in the Lake Tahoe Basin. It contains one Class I multiuse paved trail (Pope Baldwin Bike Path National Recreation Trail) and numerous authorized and unauthorized native surface trails of varying levels of challenge, maintenance, and environmental sustainability. The existing trail system is a collection of a few planned trails, previously existing roads, and user- created trails. Wildlife, hydrology, and botanical concerns

  • Dam Removal on Total Phosphorus Concentration in Taylor Creek and Wetland, South Lake Tahoe, California
    THE EFFECT OF BEAVER (Castor canadensis) DAM REMOVAL ON TOTAL PHOSPHORUS CONCENTRATION IN TAYLOR CREEK AND WETLAND, SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, CALIFORNIA by Sarah A. Muskopf A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science In Natural Resources October 2007 THE EFFECT OF BEAVER (Castor canadensis) DAM REMOVAL ON TOTAL PHOSPHORUS CONCENTRATION IN TAYLOR CREEK AND WETLAND, SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, CALIFORNIA by Sarah A. Muskopf Approved by the Master’s Project Committee: Kristine Brenneman, Major Professor Date Hobie Perry, Committee Member Date Howard Stauffer, Committee Member Date Steve Smith, Graduate Coordinator Date Chris A. Hopper Date Interim Dean, Research and Graduate Studies ABSTRACT The effect of beaver (Castor canadensis) dam removal on total phosphorus concentration in Taylor Creek and Wetland, South Lake Tahoe, California Sarah A. Muskopf Taylor Creek is located in the Lake Tahoe basin and drains into Lake Tahoe. A beaver colony in Taylor Wetland has built 14 dams along Taylor Creek and in the wetland, creating nine beaver ponds upstream. All of the dams in the main channel of Taylor Creek are destroyed annually in early fall by United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service to allow kokanee salmon (Onchorynchus nerka) to spawn. In addition, flows from Fallen Leaf Dam, located upstream of Taylor Wetland, are increased to supply ample flows for spawning (United States Department of Agriculture 1981). To determine whether beaver activity, specifically the creation of beaver dams and ponds, improve water clarity by reducing the amount of total phosphorus entering Lake Tahoe, water samples were taken before and after beaver dam removal at sites upstream from beaver influence (control sites) and downstream from beaver pond sites (impacted sites).

  • Morgan's Tahoe
    MORGAN’S TAHOE By William A. Morgan 2nd Edition All Rights Reserved Copyright 2015 Published by Memdewee Books LLC Cover Photo by Craig Morgan Printed in the United States of America FOREWORD The following is sort of a memoir, a series of articles about some of the experiences of the author while he lived and worked in the Lake Tahoe Basin of California and Nevada. During the period from the spring of 1965 to the fall of 1989, he was involved in a wide range of activities, some of which had considerable influence on the environment and the political situation in the Basin. As Forest Supervisor of the National Forest lands at Tahoe for nine years, followed by four and a half years as the Executive Director of the most controversial agency in existence at Tahoe during this period, he provides his unique perspective of happenings and accomplishments with which he was associated. Some of these tales might satisfy the curiosity of residents of Tahoe as well as those who visit the area and wonder, “How did that come about?” Or “What’s the story behind the 64 Acres?” Or “What happened to the Jennings Casino?” You can learn about those things in this book. Some of you will come across familiar names, too. Maybe your own. ~ 2 ~ ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS These people provided me information and/or assistance, that helped make it possible for me to write this book, and I’m indebted to them.

  • RECONSTRUCTING ANCIENT AVALANCHES of the SIERRA NEVADA RANGE P.R.Caterino, Ajpengroup the Surface Elevations of the Lakes Of
    RECONSTRUCTING ANCIENT AVALANCHES OF THE SIERRA NEVADA RANGE P. R. Caterino, AJpengroup The surface elevations of the lakes of the Sierra Nevada have stood considerably lower than the present for extended periods of time. The magnitude of drops in the levels of these lakes is supported by existing paleoenvironmental evidence; by a series of radiocarbon dates on trees drowned by the rising waters, by submerged archaeological features in the lake, and by historical documentation of lower lake levels. This data has implications for local and regional paleoclimatic trends, which in tum affect the existing avalanche influence zones. In lakes ranging from Tenaya Lake, Yosemite National Park, in the southern Sierra Nevada to Lake Tahoe, Donner Lake, and Independence Lake in the northern range, there have been compelling evidence of sustained lower lake levels. Through SCUBA surveys, stumps that have been dated, range from 4,800 B.P. to 6,300 B.P. in Lake Tahoe to 600-700 B.P. in other lakes of the Sierra Nevada. Research supports that during the rise of the lake levels there was a substantial and rapid increase in precipitation, such that the increase in avalanche activity caused the destruction of the forest that appeared during the lower lake elevations (approximately 150 years). Because of the low water temperature and dissolved oxygen rates in these lakes any organic materials that have been rapidly submerged are very well preserved. Many ofthe trees that were sampled and dated between 60C-700 B.P. still had bark and coloration intact. The submerged avalanche debris fans that are located in 5 to 50 m of water, generally occur within the present day avalanche influence zones.

We are particularly grateful to all of the traditional artists who are its lifeblood. An C entire acknowledgement page could have been written for each one, and there are many oth- ers important to this guide, whose names are not included because of space limitations. All gave us their time, and allowed us to enter their worlds and their lives, so that we could portray Lake Tahoe’s authentic artistic diversity and map its most significant sites. There would be no tour without them. A project such as this takes minds, money, devotion, and encouragement. Without the support of the State of Nevada, the National Endowment for the Arts Challenge America and Millennium Trails grants, and the Western Folklife Center, this project would only have existed in our imagina- tions. We want to express our thanks to individuals in the following organizations and agencies who provided services and guidance in the process of developing this tour guide, and checked for accuracy in the historical and environmental content. They are: California Department of Parks and Recreation-Sierra District Gatekeepers Museum-North Lake Tahoe Historical Society Gnomon Inc.
