   • The Kings River supplied most of the water to the basin. In wet years, and prior to 1878, Tulare Lake might cover an area as large as 30 townships or 1,080 square miles. 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.
