About this place

4/27/2018: Mosquito Ridge Road is plowed to French Meadows but the road around the reservoir is not plowed. You are not able to reach the boat ramp or the campgrounds at this time. A CDF&W target fishery for hatchery catchables. Good boat launching facilities and campgrounds. 5,000 lbs of catchable rainbow trout were planted in 2014. 25,000 Eagle Lake trout fingerlings have also been stocked historically. Large rainbow and brown trout can be found in the lake and in the river above and below the dam. The area around the lake is a State Game Refuge and no firearms are permitted. Be aware that many areas around the reservoir and into Duncan Canyon burned in the 2001 Star Fire. Use caution in burned areas due to safety hazards from dead trees.
