LAKE ALPINE RESERVOIR
Reservoir Levels • Weather • Hydrology
Lake Alpine Reservoir is a man-made lake located in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. It was created in the early 1900s to store water for hydroelectric power generation and irrigation. The reservoir receives water from several creeks and streams, including the North Fork of the Stanislaus River, as well as from snowmelt and rainfall. The area surrounding the lake is known for its abundant snowpack, which provides water for the lake and the surrounding agricultural lands. Today, Lake Alpine Reservoir is a popular destination for recreation, including fishing, boating, and hiking. The lake also serves as a source of drinking water for nearby communities.
