Donner Lake was formed during the Pleistocene period when earthquakes, volcanoes and glaciers carved and shaped the landscape. The earthquakes created the hollow space in the ground, lava and glaciers sealed up the outlets, and then the glaciers melted, water wore down the lava and the lake levels dropped by about 600 feet to what they are today.
