1992–present

The lake gauge's daily-average record begins in October 1992. Canyon Dam closed in 1964, so the lake's first three decades aren't on this chart. Canyon Lake has ranged over 73.06 vertical feet, from a record low of 876.96 ft (May 26, 2025) to a record high of 950.02 ft (Jul 6, 2002). Today's 907.97 ft is higher than 60% of the 343 monthly averages since 1992.
