Fannette Island, Lake Tahoe

Tucked into a tiny bay of a grand alpine lake is Fannette Island, the only island in Lake Tahoe. The massive lake lies in the Sierra Nevada mountain range in the western US, at an altitude of 1,897 metres, straddling the state line between California to the west and Nevada to the east. Fannette Island is in Emerald Bay, on the California side, which is connected to the lake by the narrow inlet, seen near the top of this image.
