Lake Tahoe::Nevada and
California
Recreation,
parks and tourism management is sometimes a complex balance of private
(commercial) and public agencies. Lake Tahoe represents a location
that is equal parts commercial, community and recreation resource
(outdoor) recreation. The lake area is divided between municipalities,
counties, state and federal lands – each of which has different
rules for managing recreation. In addition, there are several areas of
individual private ownership and corporate private ownership. The
competing types of ownership result in competing functions. Commercial
agencies provide motivations for tourism and often house hospitality,
ski and gaming venues. Public lands appeal to adventure and outdoor
recreation enthusiasts that are often trying to separate themselves
from crowds of tourists. Private residents seek recreational
opportunities on the lake itself, and must compete for access with
tourists – yet tourism supports the local economy. All of this while
in a very environmentally sensitive area.
