Description

Emerald Bay in Lake Tahoe with Eagle Falls in the foreground. In 1969 Emerald Bay was recognized as a National Natural Landmark by the federal Department of the Interior. In 1994 California State Parks included the surrounding water of the bay as a part of the park, making Emerald Bay one of the first underwater parks of its type in the state, protecting the various wrecks and other items on the bay's bottom.
Summer temperatures at the park range from the low 40 F (4 C) at night to mid-70 F (21 C) during the day, and during the winter visitors will usually experience temperatures between 20 and 40 F (−7 and 4 C). During harsh winters the bay freezes over. The bay is about 1.7 miles (2.7 km) in length, and about two-thirds of a mile (1 km) wide at its widest point.

Proceeds from the sale of this photograph goes to help orphaned and abandoned children in Colombia South America.
