ABOUT LAKE TAHOE

Lake Tahoe is the second deepest lake in the United States with an average depth of 1,000 feet and a maximum depth of 1,645 feet. The actual depth of the lake fluctuates daily based on the lake level.

The Lake Tahoe Basin was formed by geologic block faulting which created the Carson Range on the east and the Sierra Nevada on the west. Glacial scouring during the Ice Age shaped the lake and the surrounding landscape.

While many streams flow into Lake Tahoe there is only one outlet at the Truckee River, which flows northeast through Reno and into Pyramid Lake.

Lake Tahoe is 22 miles long and 12 miles wide with a circumference of 72 miles. The water temperature near the surface fluctuates between 40-50 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter months to 65-70 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer.
