Lake McCloud, located in Northern California, was formed in 1965 by the construction of the McCloud River Dam. The lake is fed by surface flows from the McCloud River and snowpack in the surrounding mountains. The hydrology of the lake is managed by the McCloud River Watermaster and is used for agricultural irrigation, municipal water supply, and hydropower generation. The lake is also a popular recreational destination for boating, fishing, and camping. The surrounding area is home to a variety of wildlife, including bald eagles, black bears, and trout. In recent years, concern has been raised about the impact of climate change on the snowpack providers and the potential for reduced water availability in the future.
