Lake Mead At Historic Low Levels Amid Drought In West

LAKE MEAD NRA, NV – MAY 13: Low water levels are visible at Lake Mead on May 13, 2015 in Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Nevada. As severe drought grips parts of the Western United States, Lake Mead, which was once the largest reservoir in the nation, has seen its surface elevation drop below 1,080 feet above sea level, its lowest level since the construction of the Hoover Dam in the 1930s.
