Lower Blue Lake

Another of those generic names-- This is a PG&E (Pacific Gas & Electric) reservoir in the headwaters of the Mokelumne River, in California's Sierra Nevada. It drains westward, eventually reaching the Sacramento. Insets show views a bit more to the right. I caught a kayak in the pic to the left, but I guess it adds visual interest!

I wouldn't have recognized this as a reservoir!

It was a bit more obvious during the drought:

That granite outcrop behind the seated figure is the mostly flooded one in the foreground here!

Well, there's a Round Lake, a Fish Lake and Lake of the Woods up here. I like the stone that goes into the water, fun for kids!
