Lost Creek Reservoir reservoir
Lost Creek Reservoir
Lost Creek Reservoir is a man-made reservoir located in the mountains of Utah. It was constructed in 1970 to provide irrigation water for the surrounding agricultural areas. The reservoir is fed by both surface flow and snowpack, with the majority of its water coming from snowmelt in the spring. The reservoir has a capacity of 9,000 acre-feet and is primarily used for irrigation and recreation. The reservoir is stocked with rainbow trout by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, making it a popular destination for fishing enthusiasts. Additionally, Lost Creek Reservoir is surrounded by scenic mountains and offers camping and hiking opportunities. Overall, Lost Creek Reservoir is an important source of water for agriculture and a popular recreational destination in Utah.

About Lost Creek Reservoir
Where does the data for Lost Creek Reservoir come from?
Daily storage, pool elevation, and release rates are sourced from USGS, USBR, and USACE monitoring stations. Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
Storage observations are updated daily by the operating agency. The 15-day weather forecast refreshes throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- check the "as of" timestamp on the storage card.
What does the Hazard hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this reservoir, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
