Video: Sky Surfing above 'Creeping Death' Lake Tahoe Fog

Carson Now Reader Bill Dolak submitted a breathtaking video of "Sky Surfing" above Lake Tahoe during a foggy morning.

"Certain times of the year when the weather conditions are just right, Lake Tahoe becomes fully covered in a thick blanket of fog or what pilots call 'Creeping Death,'” said Dolak.

"For the people below it can be miserable, however from above, it is an unforgettable breathtaking experience."

Yes, Nevada Day is happening this year in Carson City with traditional parade, events and activities

Last year, for the first time in living memory, the Nevada Day Parade had to be cancelled in order to safeguard the health of our community.

This year, due to so many Nevadans choosing to become vaccinated and the lifting of certain mandates from Gov. Steve Sisolak, the Nevada Day Parade will continue as planned.

Ron McNutt celebrated for coaching achievements as Nevada Day Grand Marshal

The first organized baseball games in Nevada dates back to 1869 when Carson City bested Virginia City 81-31.

By the early 20th century, many Nevada towns and fraternities had organized teams. Minor league baseball did not arrive until 1947, when the Las Vegas Wranglers and the Reno Silver Sox played in the sprawling Sunset League.
