Talk:Lake Atitlán

message: There appears to be a discrepancy in this article:
In the second paragraph it says: The lake is volcanic in origin, filling an enormous caldera formed in an eruption 84,000 years ago.
Under Geological History, further down, it says: ....the most recent (volcanic activity) of which began about 1.8 million years ago and culminated in the formation of the present caldera.
This seems to be a discrepancy. When was the caldera formed?

thread_title:  Discrepancy? 

message: to mention that the black bass introduced to the lake also live at a depth that cannot be fished without special equipment, thus their introduction has contributed in no way to the areas popularity with tourists, i'm not sure how to make this addition.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ishouldthinkso (talk • contribs) 15:33, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  It may also be interesting 

message: The first paragraph of the article says: “Atitlan is recognized to be the deepest lake in Central America with maximum depth about 340 metres (1,120 ft).“
Later in the paragraph entitled Geological History is the statement: “The lake now fills a large part of the caldera, reaching depths of up to 600 metros.“ Does that mean the lake only fills part of the depth of the caldera? Or what? Seems like there might be a discrepancy, but I don’t have the expertise to tell.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jgmccue (talk • contribs) 18:26, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

message: In the body of the text, it reads, "...it should not be confused with the smaller Lake Amatitlán." On other articles, this type of warning is at the top of the article in Italics. If I knew how to make this edit, I would change it myself. hunterhogan 16:53, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Additional information on Spanish page

message: The Culture section says that Jaibalito is unreachable by road, but Google Maps says that there is one. I can't verify it via sat view, so I didn't make the change. User:Medajor  —Preceding undated comment added 04:26, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Using the Apple Map sat view, I can just make out a hint of a road, probably a dirt road or trail, that sort of zigs and jogs and runs southeast from Jaibalito and passes near the La Casa del Mundo hotel. It then continues on generally to the northeast, roughly following the lake shore and appears to connect with the Santa Cruz la Laguna area. Like I said, I dont know what kind of road or trail it is I'm seeing, and it may not be much, but there does appear to be something there. Hope this helps! --DB1729 (talk) 04:53, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
