Current conditions at Lake Lahontan Churchill County, Fallon,Nevada
With the water being cut off in July there is no telling how low the Lake will go this year.Water levels are well below any boat ramp and fishing is next to nil. With the water being as low as it is concerns about mercury levels and toxicity of the Lake are being raised.Water levels in local wells are dropping and farmers are faced with the possibility of another dry year.
Lahontan Dam was THE PLACE to go when living in or near Fallon. In your blog you don't mention how the bottom of the Lake turns up and sometimes the whole thing would be green slime. Even when we would have to wash the green slime off of us after swimming, we would still go! Never knew about Mercury being in the Lake. What about the high Arsenic Levels in Fallon?? Does the Lake still go over the Dam when the water is higher?
