Look to the north: blocking the northward passage of the rivers which form this lake, a great dam of glacial ice once towered above the horizon as far as the eye can see. When the glacier melted, about 600,000 years ago, it left a moraine - a ridge of rubble gathered under the glacier front - at Rathdrum, Idaho northwest of here. This moraine dammed the rivers, and run-off waters were forced west to form what is now the Spokane River. Lake Facts: Area - 50 sq. mi.; Length - 32 mi.; Depth - unknown; Elev. - 2,124 ft.
