Shimmering softly in myriad Technicolor shades of blue and green, Lake Tahoe is the USA's second-largest lake with an average depth of 1,000 ft (304m). Generally speaking, the north shore (much of it in the state of Nevada) is quiet and upscale, the west shore (in California) quiet and old-timey, the east shore undeveloped and the south shore busy with motels and flashy casinos. The casinos, by the way, are a clear indication that this part of Lake Tahoe is in Nevada.
