View to west of western part of lake. Boulder-sized clasts in fan-shaped subaqueous debris flow in foreground, and subaqueous slope apron on steeper gradient in background. I would suspect that the debris flow deposits bypassed the apron. This is a quite large debris flow, possibly the result of tectonics or possibly glacial ice damming (see Schweickert, ???? for further discussion of debris flows in Lake Tahoe).
