World War II-Era Boat Now Visible In Lake Mead, As Its Water Level Continues To Recede
LAKE MEAD NATIONAL RECREATION AREA, NEVADA - JULY 1: A sunken World War II-Era Higgins landing craft that used to be nearly 200 feet underwater reveals itself near the Lake Mead Marina as the waterline continues to lower on July 1, 2022 in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Nevada. The water level at Lake Mead is at its lowest since being filled in 1937 after the construction of the Hoover Dam as a result of a climate change-fueled megadrought coupled with increased water demands in the Southwestern United States.
