Tahoe Facts
In its humble beginning, ancestral Lake Tahoe was a much smaller body of water in the southern and lowest part of the Tahoe Basin. The Basin was created two to three million years ago by downdropped blocks resulting from geologic faulting — the uplifted blocks creating the Carson Range to the east and the Sierra Nevada to the west. Approximately one million years ago, Lake Tahoe evolved to its current shape and size as glaciers scoured the land during the Ice Age.
