The Upper Kaweah Watershed, located in California's Sierra Nevada Mountains, covers an area of approximately 346 square miles. The hydrology of the region is characterized by a snow-dominated system, with winter snowpacks providing the majority of the surface water during the dry summer months. The watershed is home to the Three Rivers Municipal Water District, which operates two reservoirs, Lake Kaweah and Terminus Dam, to store and regulate water supply. The watershed is also known for its diverse wildlife, including black bears, mountain lions, and mule deer. Climate trends in the area show an overall increase in temperatures and a decrease in snowpack, which has led to concerns over water scarcity in the future. The Upper Kaweah Watershed is an important source of water for both residential and agricultural use, and efforts are being made to ensure its sustainability for future generations.
