Grant Lake is a man-made reservoir situated in Mono County, California. The lake was created in 1916 by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power as a part of the Los Angeles Aqueduct system. The lake is fed by several sources, including Rush Creek and Lee Vining Creek, which are important surface flow providers, as well as snowpack melting during the spring and summer months. The water from the lake is used for irrigation of agricultural land in the surrounding area and also provides recreational activities such as fishing, boating, and camping. The lake is a vital hydrological resource in the area, and its water levels are closely monitored to ensure that it remains a sustainable source of water for the region.
