Caption on image: And here's El Dorado Beach again. This shot was taken looking east from the top of the bank, about the same level as the highway. The ""snow bank"" is on the right. Down in the left hand corner you can see the dirt being washed into the Lake. Photograph taken May 14, 1965. This image is part of the Lake Tahoe Area Council photograph collection. The Council was a private, non-political and non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and orderly development of the Lake Tahoe Basin.
