I was there last month.
It took me almost 30 minutes to walk from where the normal marina/dock was to the actual current lake level now.
It’s unbelievable how much of that water is gone.
The Hoover Dam folks will not answer questions about lake levels and “what if” scenarios considering the current circumstances.
30 minutes?
There’s dirty work afoot
At the current rate, within two years the outflow from Lake Mead will equal the inflow to Lake Mead, minus evaporation and whatever Las Vegas takes.
And some of the water that exits Lake Mead is promised by treaty to Mexico.
Won’t be leaving much for AZ and CA.
I was there about 40 years ago, very impressed with the beauty of the lake. Not sure whether it was full or just close to it. Very sad to see these pictures today.
