Barging Supplies to The Marina For Houseboats

Callville Bay Marina on Lake Mead is struggling to stay open. The Boat Launch is CLOSED and the parking area is steep and far from the docks. you can still rent boats on the Lake and get fuel. The historic Lake Mead Low water levels are taking a toll on the entire Lakes boating facilities

[@lindabrown2211]

Great video as always. The water markers and dates were a sad thing to see for sure. Be safe. Thanks again Russ

[@GearReviewDepot]

It’s absolutely amazing how long people are holding on to the lake and boating. At what point will boaters pack up and do something else with their time? Are there no other lakes anywhere? I swear the water will be so shallow a toddler can stand up in it and they’ll still be boaters trying to get their boat in the puddle.

[@panzerguy5404]

This is insanity. The money spent on this could be better spent elsewhere. It's going to coast a fortune just to clean up the mess left behind.

[@seatime674]

You have to remember Lake Mead is the biggest man-made lake in the U.S and even if it's 10% full it's still the size of a small ocean

[@hommie789]

@@seatime674 Say what? Since when is Lake Mead the largest man made lake? Have you ever heard of Lake Volta or Lake Nasser or by Volume Lake Kariba?

[@seatime674]

@@hommie789 Meant to say in the United States

[@hommie789]

@@seatime674 UUMMMM ok but what about Lake Oahe or Lake Sasakawea? Lake Mead is only the largest by Volume but it is quickly losing ground, there are plenty of larger man made lakes in the States and by surface area Lake Mead sits 6th.

I was surprised to see that Callville Marina was still open. Thanks for letting us tag along Russ!

[@richardl.7390]

Nice video, Russ. During the summer, Red Rock Canyon campground, just West of Las Vegas on Route 159 (Charleston Avenue inside the Las Vegas City limits) is closed and they put up a fence so you can't reach the campsites. Overton and Echo Bay campgrounds east of the City remained open the last time I visited but spending the day in 115 degree F heat is not fun. I used to climb Mount Charleston where there are 2 or 3 different campgrounds (notably Lee Canyon) where the temperature is more bearable (maximum around 85 deg.). I hope you will film a little inside Valley of Fire to show us some of the beautiful rock formations. Safe travel !! RICHARD

[@larryjohnson6398]

Good video wow sad though about all that water being gone but they're still trying we'll keep watching her us we love you

🙋‍Hello Russ! I Can't even begin to imagine what Lake Mead will look like next summer. From the aerial view not much room left for boating. Enjoy it while you can. It's not going to be with us much longer. Sadly to say.

Thanks for taking us along and doing the leg work.

[@cweasel00]

Hey Russ!!! Would like to say thank you for the tours of Lake Mead these days. Just too sad for words. Also, scary situation that we will be in within the next couple months to a year, when it comes to water supply. Keep up the good work and keep the videos rolling. Again big thank you to you for sharing! Alec…

That restaurant on the hill, or whatever it is, that's where the water used to be in the lake's heydays, just outside it. Quite incredible. Saw a photo in a video a while ago.

[@boondocksteveo1586]

Right on Russ, I worked here in the 90s on the fuel dock and also lived here as well. Sorry to see the water gone but still a beautiful place, nice video.

Nice campground

[@charlesyell6318]

Thank you so much for sharing this great tragedy with me. I remember swimming in the lake when it was full.You do a great job filming it . I look forward for each video.

[@beverlyroberts1139]

Excellent video quality, and love the casual commentary! Great stuff !

[@JeepdudeFL]

How come you don't stay at the Elk's Lodge's anymore? That was such a cool option when you had the trailer.

[@lindamartin2045]

Marvelous, 👍😳🎶🤗. Certainly a lot of effort unloading ice. Nice walk but think I'll get trekking poles. Last trip my knees hurt for days. I see all these rv's and remember how miserable we were tent camping. No air conditioning in car either. Death Valley was a real oven . Take care .

Wao.. thanks for sharing the update view from lake mead

[@jimbridge4166]

Thanks Russ

[@scottg391]

They used to rent the houseboats at echo bay and Temple bar back in the day. I thought for sure Callville was all but closed by now. Go figure. It was all you could do to find a beach on the north side of Sandy point when they rented them out of Temple bar. I think the last time I saw a rental in Greggs basin was 2005. We would often see these things heading up past Pearce Ferry back in 83 and 84 when you the river delta was past quartermaster point. Good stuff as usual Russ, keep up the good work.

[@stephendevore3902]

Thanks

[@thisisnightlive]

[@lucyfoster8624]

WOW! Thanks for sharing. Otherwise I would never see any of this.

[@dsbmwhacker]

We manufactured and assembled "Floating Sanitation Facilities" (marine floating toilets) for the National Park Service 14 years ago at Calville Bay. The water level was close to the Marina Store at that time. I recently viewed our $1.5 million dollars worth of bathrooms beached, vandalized, and stripped, sitting on land where the Park Service left them. Pretty sad.

The irony with watering the dead tree right in front of the drying up Lake Mead. That's literally like slapping Mother Nature in the face. No wonder why she just takes back what's hers.

[@mrhypnomadic1104]

I've been at Lake Mead quite a few times in July & August. Pretty sure I'd accidentally fall into the water a couple times each afternoon if I was out in the sun on those barges moving stuff around all day! ;-) Thanks for yet another fantastic video, Russ!

[@Hi_Mommy953]

I seen a video of another lady at the same place you're at a couple weeks ago and that golf cart is a free shuttle for people like you and me it's over 60 so we don't get wore out and we do business at their Marina the lady offering a golf cart is a sweetheart

well glad to see its still open if the mobile homes are losing value then just maybe i can buy one now !!!!! i love that lake !!!!!

[@DavidDragonhammer]

Well am in Minnesota and we have a severe drought going on, rains and then drys up right afterwards ,but at least when I camp still have brush and trees,and some grass.

[@kenkiekens7746]

that area where you are with the lake level signs was as busy as a beehive even in July 2022. now it also is closed.

[@brendakitts1196]

love your videos hope you write a book about your adventures

[@lindawoody8501]

With a day left, the water level has dropped about 2-1/4" in the past month which likely has been helped a bit by sporadic rains in the region during the past two weeks. Hooray for the little bits of rain (sorry about Vegas flooding) that have fallen in the region.

[@jaimemaldonado4152]

Back when the dam was built water demand in the area was many times lower than it is now and it took over six years to fill it up. Every little rain we get is better then no rain at all though .

[@donnydizzle2781]

Sadly it will probably take about 6 months of straight rain to get this back close to the way it was, that is not going to happen so just hope for the best..

[@lindawoody8501]

Up 1.5" from yesterday due to rain in the region I am happy to say. At least delaying loss for a time.

[@michaelgarrity6090]

The only thing that is going to save this lake is about ten years of heavy winter snowfall in the region of the Colorado River headwaters. A few good rains that lead to flooding is only going to buy the lake a little more time but not enough to make much difference. The lake will soon be effectively GONE!

[@SmittyAZ]

Thanks for taking that long, lonely, solo, scary walk!

[@pamelaattrux336]

Thanks very interesting

[@chuckstith838]

Where's your e bike? Be nice going up the ramps with it

[@sueannhawkes]

That camphost trailer looked abandoned. I'll bet the electricity has been turned off there too. No one wants to camp there at 115° with no AC. Like you say "maybe in the Fall". The desert is just reclaiming itself. Back to being the Colorado River. Where have you been spending the nights in that heat? Hookups? Please put the date each video was filmed on the description. Thanks Russ for the drive along.

[@kcinaz7719]

I was there last November and that RV park was full! The entire thing is so depressing.

Russ gas has dropped to 3.59 a gallon here in central Ohio but diesel is still over 5$ a gallon first time I've ever seen a 2$ difference between gas n diesel

[@gulledgeadamful]

They must have a ton of money to keep this going. Kind of like going down with the ship.

[@dalecarney2581]

Wow that boat harbor will probably be high and dry in 1-3 months amazing video

[@archie34734]

From the brief drone footage you can see the massive marina literally barely floating in a puddle of water. Is there any room to push the marina out farther into the lake when an island is rising out of the water preventing everything but narrow structures from becoming landlocked?

[@yvonnemiranda2918]

Be safe Russ looks hot out there 🥵😎

[@juliojames5986]

That water was dropping fast, considering the total surface area, weird ! I wonder if anyone has looked at the 22 years prior to year 2000, etc, etc…..for comparison, in relation to whatever ? something weird 🤦🏻‍♂️! Seems in time, all the campground ,restaurant area, will dry completely up 😢! Thanks Russ. 👍🏻

[@robertlyman9789]

They poured some nice concrete hiking trails for the curious in the future

[@timwhisnant3780]

Shocking. 😔

[@62ejo]

Is the lake ok to swim??? Does the state health ck it???

[@joemc111]

Nice coverage Russ. Well when and if the water comes back the boat launch will be ready to go. Russ when you were up at the hotel restaurant and you were standing by that red hose with all those big rocks how far down do you think the Highwater mark is from that point it would be neat if you could tell us that if you ever go back to Lake Mead.

[@jamesgrandstaff2612]

Is there nothing they can do to add more water to this lake? I feel like everyone has given up on trying

[@travelchick7267]

"They" cannot do anything. Everybody has to save water and take climate change serious. That would be a start.

[@jonathonvince561]

That's what lasvegas is going to look like soon

[@texasaggieproud]

Haha! Love the sticker with Dementia Joe on the water level sign pointing and bragging about his failures: "I did that!"

[@100bowlingave]

If it was bad as the news says, wouldn't they be moving the boats out of lake? Or would it be easier to take them out with it dry?

[@jc1979af]

There is still enough lake to sail around on. I assume that some people rent dock space, so they keep their boats there. Also some boat owners don't have a place to take their boat. They would either have to take it back to their house or store it in lot. This is especially true for house boats.

[@MedicatedMemory]

Any of that flooding help?

[@SenatorBulworth]

Do the Feds actually prohibit people/organizations that would want to dispose of the junk that becomes exposed from doing so? If so, what is the logic behind such a regulation?
