Bon Tempe is a reservoir located in Marin County, California, USA. It was built in 1949 and is part of the Marin Municipal Water District, providing water to 10,000 homes and businesses in the area. Bon Tempe is fed by surface water flowing from the Lagunitas Creek watershed, and its hydrology is impacted by the Mediterranean climate of the region. The reservoir is also dependent on the snowpack of Mount Tamalpais for its water supply. The area surrounding Bon Tempe is primarily used for recreational activities such as hiking, fishing, and camping. Additionally, the Bon Tempe reservoir plays an important role in maintaining the agricultural industry of Marin County by providing irrigation water to nearby farms.
