When full, the waters would flow northward into Summit Lake (south/west of Riverdale), into the Fresno Slough and then to the San Joaquin River all the way to the Delta.

   How big was Tulare Lake?

   • In wet years it could stretch over 690 square miles across the Central Valley. At times, towns like Corcoran and Stratford, had they existed then, would have been submerged beneath 25 feet of the Sierra’s water, and its shore would reach to the outskirts of Lemoore. Such was the size and scope of the vast Tulare Lake well over 150 years ago.
