local.seafdecaqd.extract | In the 15 years since Adam Dailey began boating on Lake Mead, the shoreline has receded hundreds of meters, the result of more than two decades of punishing drought that is drying out the western United States. Launch spots that lined the edge of the lake, located outside Las Vegas, have been abandoned, and a single ramp is now the only way to get a boat in the water. “We used to have more. So everyone’s fighting to use one ramp ... and still trying to figure out how to get along,” said Dailey. “It’s kind of sad, what’s going on. But we still come out and try to enjoy it when we can.” Lake Mead is the largest reservoir in the United States, a huge man-made body of water formed by the construction of the Hoover Dam in the early 1930s. | en |
