Their greatest success was the occupation of Pylos off the coast of the Peloponnesus (425 B.C.), where Spartan defenders were taken hostage and the way was made clear for Helot runaways. The subsequent failure of Sparta to reduce Athens in the first decade of the war led to a brief peace (421 B.C.). But soon the Athenians intervened in the Peloponnesus (418 B.C.) and attacked neutral states in the Aegean.

Flathead Lake is the largest natural freshwater lake in the western US (by surface area) outside of Alaska. Lake Tahoe has more water than Flathead because it is significantly deeper (nearly 1650 ft vs. 380 ft). The Great Salt Lake in Utah is significantly larger than Flathead but is salt, not fresh water. And there are numerous larger man-made reservoirs. Average surface temperatures of the Lake range from 2.3Â°C (36Â°F) in mid-January to 13.5Â°C (56Â°F) in mid-June to 20.3Â°C (68Â°F) in mid-August.
