Modern Lake Tahoe was shaped and landscaped by the scouring glaciers during the Ice Age (the Great Ice Age began a million or more years ago). Snow, rain, and streams filled the southern and lowest part of the basin, forming the ancestral Lake Tahoe. Some of the highest peaks of the Lake Tahoe Basin that formed during this process were Freel Peak at 10,891 ft (3,320 m), Monument Peak at 10,067 ft (3,068 m) (the present Heavenly Valley Ski Area), Pyramid Peak at 9,983 ft (3,043 m) (in the Desolation Wilderness), and Mt. Down-dropped blocks created the Lake Tahoe Basin in between. Uplifted blocks created the Carson Range on the east and the Sierra Nevada on the west. A geologic block fault is a fracture in the Earth’s crust causing blocks of land to move up or down. The Lake Tahoe Basin was formed by geologic block (normal) faulting about 2 to 3 million years ago.
