Lake Almanor
Lake Almanor is a large reservoir in northwestern Plumas County, northeastern California. The reservoir has a capacity of and a maximum depth of about 90 feet. It is formed by Canyon Dam on the North Fork of the Feather River, as well as Benner and Last Chance Creeks, Hamilton Branch, and various natural springs.
==Creation==
The dam is 130 feet tall and composed of hydraulic fill.
The first dam was completed by Great Western Power in 1914〔http://www.citlink.net/~lahontan/almanor.htm〕 as part of the Upper North Fork Feather River Project, damming the North Fork of the Feather River and flooding the meadow-filled valley generally known as Nakam Koyo/Big Meadows/Big Springs, a longstanding Yamani Maidu village site.〔Golla, Victor. 2011. California Indian Languages. University of California Press〕〔The Northern Maidu. Roland B. Dixon. 1905. Bulletin of the Museum of Natural History Vol. XVIII, Part III, pp. 119-346. Huntington California Expedition〕 When the dam was built, Maidu families still living in the vicinity were displaced while parts of the town of Prattville had to be moved to higher ground, leaving multiple structures flooded over. The reservoir was named for the three daughters of Guy C. Earl, Vice President of Great Western Power: ''Al''ice, ''Ma''rtha and Elea''nor''.〔1500 California Place Names: Their Origin and Meaning by William Bright. University of California Press, Berkeley and Los Angeles, 1998.〕 The present dam, which more than doubled the size was constructed by Great Western Power from 1926 to 1927.
The dam is now owned by Pacific Gas and Electric Company. PG&E uses it for hydroelectricity production, but the lake is also a popular recreation area, with fishing, boating, water skiing, swimming and camping available.
