Lyons Reservoir

 

Lyons Reservoir is a PG&E site and only 2 miles from Twain Harte located on the South Fork of the Stanislaus River .   Lyons is a beautiful lake to visit.   You can hike around the lake on an easy, level trail and hike across the dam.   PG&E allows fishing and hiking, but no swimming or boating. 

 

 

The dam at the south end of the lake has a dramatic spill way that drains the lake into a picturesque canyon below the dam.    

 

The lake drops in the late summer and fall as the water  is used  for the Tuolumne water district.
