Great Summer Times on Shasta Lake

The water level is still holding at a decent level. We are 24' higher than we were last year at this time. We are 90' down, but still have 261 shoreline miles to explore!!!! The temperatures have been nice and warm, as well as the water. The most recent water temperature was close to 80 degrees! Jump on in, the water's great!!!!

Triple digits headed our way!

It's warming up out there, Come experience Shasta Lake!!!!
Shasta Lake’s many arms and inlets
make it a great place for explorers of all kinds.
The four arms of the lake have many
spectacular sights, as well as, geologic and historic
areas of interest.
Shasta Lake is California’s largest reservoir,
it also happens to host one of the largest
populations of nesting bald eagles in California.
As of May 2009, the Shasta and
Trinity Units of the Whiskeytown-
Shasta Trinity National Recreation Area
support at least 31 pairs of resident
eagles, including 18 pairs at Shasta
Lake (there also are 10 pairs at Trinity
Lake and three pairs at Lewiston Lake).
This constitutes close to 20 percent of
the nesting eagles in California.

Thunderstorms and warm rains....

We've had quite a few Thunderstorms pass through the area for June..... Warm days and some hit and miss rain here at Shasta Lake. We have 16 boats going out over the weekend, to enjoy this radical weather. Summer is just getting rolling and we'll take every bit of moisture we can accumulate before the real heat sets in. Fishing is good! Everything is still green and we are sitting at 55' from the crest. Very NICE!

The Summer Season is here!

Memorial Day Weekend was a real treat! The weather was perfect, just warm enough to enjoy the water and hanging out in the sun. The people that gathered on the lake this year were out there to have a good time and they did!!! We're moving into the triple digits this week, it's warming up quickly, SUMMER IS HERE!!!!!
