From my reading of what you've written, the fault line would then be the east side of the lake running almost directly north / south at this point and the triangle shape slopes is from the shearing of those mountains. Looking at the satellite view gives a good indicator of the horizontal lines as former shorelines. Re the rhyolite, the extent of the flow is evident in the satellite photo, and it looks like there are some interesting (but probably difficult to navigate) roads into it. Given the coloring, would there be a likelihood of obsidian?
FYI, the Wikipedia page on Lake Lahontan seems good, indicating that Winnemucca was a remnant that dried up in the 1930's. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Lahontan
Btw, "Nixon" is not named after Tricky Dick but a Nevada senator from around the time of WW I. Dunno if he's a distant cousin!
Thanks for the info!
