Landlocked Pyramid Lake is the sump for the Truckee River, so that its level is set by a balance between inflow and evaporation. The levels have dropped substantially since the arrival of Euro-Americans because of upstream diversions; indeed, an overflow basin in the next valley, Winnemucca Lake, dried up completely in the 1930s. Pyramid Lake is contained wholly within the eponymous Paiute reservation, and you need to get a permit from the tribe for all outdoor activities on the Rez. Nevada, USA.
