Lake Mead is a large reservoir located approximately 40 minutes from Las Vegas. The man-made lake is fed by the Colorado River and provides drinking water for millions of people in the state of Nevada. It’s neither the most beautiful nor the most impressive lake in the region, but nonetheless, it’s been making plenty of headlines in recent years. Dramatic drops in water levels due to climate change have consistently reduced the size of the lake for decades, with a sharp acceleration of the issue in recent years. During the summer of 2022, the receding shoreline revealed more than one nasty surprise.
