  Pyramid Lake is located in southeastern Washoe County in western Nevada about 40 mi (64 km) northeast of Reno. Pyramid Lake is fed by the Truckee River, which is mostly the outflow from Lake Tahoe. Pyramid Lake has no outlet, with water leaving only by evaporation, or sub-surface seepage (an endorheic lake).
