Round Valley

Round Valley Reservoir — Looking roughly southeast, with the diving cove in the foreground. The natural basin of the valley is evident, as well as one of the two dams, at right. The water level looks pretty high, with a little snow on the ground.

Note: In 2020 Round Valley began a period of maintenance which is expected to last several years. During this time, the water volume is reduced by a third. My completely offhand guess is that this will reduce the water level by around ten feet. In the shallow areas where diving is practical, this will significantly alter the shoreline.
