Stay current on all things Lake Tahoe

The League to Save Lake Tahoe acknowledges that its offices and work exist within the aboriginal homelands of the Washoe Tribe of NV and CA. Before they were forcibly removed from their ancestral home, the Waší∙šiw or Washoe People were the original stewards of Lake Tahoe and surrounding lands since time immemorial and have continued to play a significant role in the preservation and protection of the Tahoe Basin. We respect and are inspired by the Washoe Tribe’s legacy and profound stewardship of the Tahoe Basin. The League is honored to work with the Washoe Tribe of NV and CA to protect this special place today and for generations to come.
