Nevada authorities are cracking down on public nudity on their side of lake Tahoe. Washoe County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Bob Harmon says the increase enforcement of clothing rules was prompted by an encounter deputies had with nude sunbathers recently. Nude men at Creek Beach made inappropriate and lewd gestures at deputies, which lead to a confrontation between the men and the deputies. Reportedly there are no beaches on the Nevada side of the Lake Tahoe where nudity is officially sanctioned by law. Carson City Sheriff Ken Furlong says public nudity is against state and local laws, but the enforcement of those laws at Lake Tahoe hasn’t been a high priority.
