Pyramid Lake is the geographic sink of the basin of the Truckee River, 40 mi northeast of Reno, Nevada, United States. Pyramid Lake is the biggest remnant of ancient Lake Lahontan, the colossal inland sea that once covered most of Nevada.
The Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe says the blue-green algae bloom, also known as cyanobacteria, can produce several types of toxins that could affect the liver, nerves, skin, stomach and intestines. These toxins can be harmful to humans, pets and wildlife.
