this is the incredible lake tahoe one of the clearest lakes in the world and the largest
alpine lake in north america that is so pretty amazing at any season today we're spending a late
spring day exploring some of the lesser-known beaches and coves that we've never been to even
though we've lived here for years there's always more to find oh my god let's discover some amazing
new corners of this lake together on this random day in our lives in lake tahoe but first tea time
a little later than we wanted but what else
here we are the pine smells so good incredibly extra right now we're almost to my favorite
little beachy area all right this stretch of beaches is clothing optional are you excited
very few people actually take advantage of the clothing optional but what i like about it is
that it's the option it's freeing somehow first little peeks here blue gatorade that is so pretty
you get this like caribbean blue but then these snowy mountains
what a day huh wow so perfect
gosh that is so clear and so much deeper than you think
looks like the boat's just performing a levitation trick so nice today
levitating what'd you make it's um chia pudding with overnight oats there's some blueberries in
here and strawberries and i used skur and oat milk as the base what's the verdict
you like it water looks super clear but you still got clean and filter it to drink it
show us how it's done it's gonna be like the nicest coldest most refreshing water
ever today we're testing out the lifestraw peak series lightweight durable filters and
bottles of different sizes and uses that are perfect for hiking and backpacking
the filters protect against dirt sand cloudiness microplastics bacteria and parasites i also love
that lifestraw is committed to making the world a better place providing a year of safe water
to a school child for every product purchased and the company is climate neutral all right
let gravity do its work the filters are all leak-proof with caps and universal threading meant
to stand the test of time they're not just about creating extra parts for no reason either these
filters are designed to be interchangeable not only with other lifestraw products but with gear
you may already have too when i think about all the people who come to lake tahoe and they bring
bottled plastic water with them especially with the holidays coming up people scuba dive out here
and pull so much trash out of the lake because people bring their own drinks it's crazy because
you have this huge perfectly beautiful like available water and it can be so simple what
you're looking at we love backpacking up in there we're last summer camping on the lake
super nice want to check out some other beaches yeah back up in the trees yeah
i did it
yes oh oh okay yeah we're good wow that is nice gotta climb a little bit on this trail
she's still got it wow
all right
for another beach oh yeah oh yeah
this looks promising it looks like summer but that water is 48 48 and apparently it's 58
outside but it feels like 90. it's an interesting trail to be sure oh well i'm so wide now though
wow oh hello a friend's coming
hi oh hi
wow
how long have you lived here eight years in june so it's been a great eight years i love coming
up to the lake and this is what made you want to be here right yeah i came up here after my
interview and i drove the whole lake and then i was like wow this is really close and really cool
to where i could be living and working yeah he's the reason why i moved here three years ago but
i feel the same way it's pretty pretty amazing what i love about here is there's something to
do no matter what season it is like we've hiked in the winter and that was awesome kayaked in
the winter i love backpacking in the summer the fall is beautiful as well because you got the
changing leaves that's a good point we got one little cheeky thing to do back there before we go
my photographer extraordinaire thank you thank you
doesn't smell like vanilla there's a tree called a jeffrey pine it's a big
tree it almost looks like a red wood and it smells like vanilla it's amazing yes
we did it
oh jeez
time for lunchy we heard this place is really good
i'm excited so many people have said this place is good let's give it a try
now we're driving out the mount rose direction
it is crazy how big this is when i look back on some of my favorite memories here and what made
me really love living in nevada i can trace a lot of it right back to here i've always
felt like this lake has magical properties and that she must be protected at all costs
it's hard to think of a place where i've been able to dip into all of my loves free diving hiking
camping backpacking swimming and just laying on the beach playing games and watching the day go by
i feel privileged to live here and look forward to the years to come back sharing it with my family
