Circumnavigate Lake Tahoe for Science

Join Scott Fitzgerrell, UC Davis Tahoe Environmental Research Center director Geoff Schladow and other TERC scientists to kayak Lake Tahoe in support of the Citizen Science Tahoe project for a tour of Lake Tahoe from June 21 to 27 from 7:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. daily. Using the app, they will collect valuable water quality, algal growth and microplastics data. They will also be discussing current research at Lake Tahoe.

Each day will cover a different section of the Lake departing from, in order: Sand Harbor State Park; Carnelian Bay; William Kent Beach; Chambers Beach; D.L. Bliss State Park; Pope Beach; and Cave Rock.

All participants are responsible for bringing their own watercraft, life jackets, masks, food and beverages; planning their own transportation to/from the departure and arrival sites; and for parking fees. Cleaned, drained and dried watercraft only.
