Special Report: Lake Tahoe's Deadly Freak Storm

A charter captain recounts one of the deadliest storms ever on Lake
Tahoe. Sponsored by Imtra During the afternoon of June 21, an
unexpected, ferocious thunderstorm swept across Lake Tahoe. Before
the storm, scores of boaters were out enjoying a Saturday on the
lake. One was longtime Tahoe fishing charter captain Mike Nielsen.
The owner of Tahoe Topliners sportfishing, Nielsen has grown up on
the lake and from his 22-foot Duckworth, he had a front row seat to
a storm that sank or capsized many boats and tragically, killed
eight in what may be the worst marine disaster in Tahoe history.
