    I was up there in Incline last July and I was thinking about it the whole time. Single lane roads both ways only and traffic everywhere. Tons of tourist and dry trees all around.

    If that place goes up there’s gonna be a lot of dead people.

        Water is heavy. They need to invest in building a cruise-ship sized mobile fire station barge that can shoot water up 2000 ft, if they want the lake to save them. And even then I’m not sure.
