#205 — A pretty view at
Lake
Tahoe
during July 2004.
Lake
Tahoe
is the second deepest
lake
in the United States and the tenth deepest in the world, with a maximum depth measured at 1,645 ft (501 m), average depth of 1,000 ft (305 m). The
Lake
Tahoe
Basin was formed by geologic block (normal) faulting about 2 to 3 million years ago. A geologic block fault is a fracture in the Earth's crust causing blocks of land to move up or down. Snow, rain, and streams filled the southern and lowest part of the basin, forming the ancestral
Lake
Tahoe
. Modern
Lake
Tahoe
was shaped and landscaped by the scouring glaciers during the Ice Age. Many streams flow into
Lake
Tahoe
, but the
lake
is drained only by the Truckee River, which flows northeast through Reno and into Pyramid
Lake
in Nevada.
