Fourmile Lake (or Four Mile Lake) is a reservoir located above sea level in Klamath County, Oregon, United States. It is northeast of Medford.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】publisher=United States Bureau of Reclamation )〕 The lake was created when the tall Fourmile Lake Dam was constructed, impounding Fourmile Creek, in the Klamath River watershed. It is located just to the east of Mount McLoughlin, which stands above sea level. The lake is bordered by Sky Lakes Wilderness, and is in the Winema National Forest. ==History== In 1898, the Fish Lake Water Company was established to help irrigate the Rogue Valley. The company proposed create Fourmile Lake and enlarge nearby Fish Lake for added water storage. The Fourmile Lake Dam was constructed in 1906, while Fish Lake was completed in 1908. The two lakes were connected in 1915 by the Cascade Canal, taking water from Fourmile Lake over the Cascade Divide to Fish Lake, supplementing Little Butte Creek.〔 〕 In 1955, the dam was repaired, and a new spillway was added.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fourmile Lake (Oregon)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
