Local lake newsThis is where we'll post updates of happenings around the lake. Check here first for weather, lake level and snow information. For detailed weather information go to http://cdec.water.ca.gov/cgi-progs/plotReal?staid=HNT an automated weather station located by dam number 3.
October 2007 Well the summer season is behind us and we need the rest! This has been the busiest season on record (over 50 calls!) and with a far greater range of rescue challenges than we have seen in the past. From in-water searches for drowned persons to the rescue of the person from the base of Rancheria Falls where he had fallen 200 feet (and lived), our range of skills was very tested! As promised, Edison has been dropping the lake very fast. If you have dropped anything off a boat and want to retrieve it, now would be the time before the snow flies. Other than that, the Lake area is beautiful this time of year. It is quiet, we are getting our relatively subtle changes in colors that make fall gorgeous and the fall winds practically sing in the trees. If you have not been up in a while during this time of year, consider doing it this year. Our fall newsletter will be out soon with more information about Department activities. Even before you get that, though, please accept our sincere thanks to all of you who support the Department. We have made great strides in the last several years to become a very well regarded department and it has only been possible with the ideas and financial support you have provided.
