Callville Bay Marina on Lake Mead is struggling to stay open. The Boat Launch is CLOSED and the parking area is steep and far from the docks. you can still rent boats on the Lake and get fuel. The historic Lake Mead Low water levels are taking a toll on the entire Lakes boating facilities

It’s absolutely amazing how long people are holding on to the lake and boating. At what point will boaters pack up and do something else with their time? Are there no other lakes anywhere? I swear the water will be so shallow a toddler can stand up in it and they’ll still be boaters trying to get their boat in the puddle.

@richardl.7390 Год назад

Nice video, Russ. During the summer, Red Rock Canyon campground, just West of Las Vegas on Route 159 (Charleston Avenue inside the Las Vegas City limits) is closed and they put up a fence so you can't reach the campsites. Overton and Echo Bay campgrounds east of the City remained open the last time I visited but spending the day in 115 degree F heat is not fun. I used to climb Mount Charleston where there are 2 or 3 different campgrounds (notably Lee Canyon) where the temperature is more bearable (maximum around 85 deg.). I hope you will film a little inside Valley of Fire to show us some of the beautiful rock formations. Safe travel !! RICHARD

We manufactured and assembled "Floating Sanitation Facilities" (marine floating toilets) for the National Park Service 14 years ago at Calville Bay. The water level was close to the Marina Store at that time. I recently viewed our $1.5 million dollars worth of bathrooms beached, vandalized, and stripped, sitting on land where the Park Service left them. Pretty sad.

Thanks Russ for the drive along.

@lindawoody8501 Год назад

With a day left, the water level has dropped about 2-1/4" in the past month which likely has been helped a bit by sporadic rains in the region during the past two weeks. Hooray for the little bits of rain (sorry about Vegas flooding) that have fallen in the region.

@jaimemaldonado4152 Год назад

Back when the dam was built water demand in the area was many times lower than it is now and it took over six years to fill it up. Every little rain we get is better then no rain at all though .

@donnydizzle2781 Год назад

Sadly it will probably take about 6 months of straight rain to get this back close to the way it was, that is not going to happen so just hope for the best..

@lindawoody8501 Год назад

Up 1.5" from yesterday due to rain in the region I am happy to say. At least delaying loss for a time.

@michaelgarrity6090 Год назад

The only thing that is going to save this lake is about ten years of heavy winter snowfall in the region of the Colorado River headwaters. A few good rains that lead to flooding is only going to buy the lake a little more time but not enough to make much difference. The lake will soon be effectively GONE!

@scottg391 Год назад

They used to rent the houseboats at echo bay and Temple bar back in the day. I thought for sure Callville was all but closed by now. Go figure. It was all you could do to find a beach on the north side of Sandy point when they rented them out of Temple bar. I think the last time I saw a rental in Greggs basin was 2005. We would often see these things heading up past Pearce Ferry back in 83 and 84 when you the river delta was past quartermaster point. Good stuff as usual Russ, keep up the good work.

Hey Russ, I'm guessing you're out of the area now--hopefully you managed to avoid the monsoons and flooding they had in the Las Vegas area. I had some good times camping at Echo Bay and staying at the resort in Callville Bay. There used to be burros hanging out in the area, you could hear them braying at dawn and dusk. So you're on the way to Utah, eh? Should be a nice change of scenery, especially if you get up into the higher elevations...happy trails!
