They called it Vinland, not sure why, but they did!
I assume you are referring to Yggdrasil. It is the world tree, and does not exist in a physical form. As for Vinland, its not a myth. The vikings discovered North America around the year 1000 CE, and they named it Vinland (Wine-land, for the berry bushes). I don't see what Lake Tahoe has to do with anything.
Vinland was the name given to an area of North America by the Norseman Leif Eriksson, about the year 1001 CE. (SO YES)== ==
