A kayaking excursion on Lake Tahoe ended with one person being treated for hypothermia at Barton Memorial Hospital.

“A male subject was lying on top of the overturned kayak and he appeared to be in medical distress and almost lifeless,” the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Department’s Oct. 10 press release reads. The incident occurred Oct. 4.

That person has been released from the hospital.

Another kayaker was unable to paddle to the shore near the Tahoe Tallac Site, while the third person was found safe at Whiskey Cove.

There was a lake wind advisory for that day. When the patrol boat set out it encountered 2 to 4 foot swells.

Names, ages and hometowns of the three were not released.
