Additionally, snowpack in the surrounding area can contribute to the lake's water level during the spring melt. The lake provides irrigation water for nearby agricultural fields, as well as recreational opportunities such as fishing and boating. The lake's surface area varies depending on water levels, but it can reach up to 9,000 acres when full.
