The Lake Never Gives Up Its Dead
FeaturedTahoe is so cold and deep that bodies don't decompose normally. Jacques Cousteau allegedly explored the bottom in the 1970s and said 'the world isn't ready for what's down there.' He probably didn't, but still. 1,645 feet deep. Think about it.
The Mob Dumped Bodies Here
During Tahoe's casino boom in the 1950s-60s, rumor has it the mob used the lake's depth for... disposal. There's no proof. There are also no bodies. See item one.
It Snowed 65 Feet in One Winter
The winter of 1951-52 dumped over 800 inches of snow on the Sierra. That's 65+ feet. Some buildings were buried entirely. People tunneled to their front doors. Tahoe gonna Tahoe.
