Level of the Lake

1993–present

Reclamation's daily record begins in February 1993, as the reservoir started to fill. The 1993–95 fill is left off the chart and the comparison, just as for the record low. Jordanelle Reservoir has ranged over 66.05 vertical feet, from a record low of 6,102.01 ft (Mar 23, 2022) to a record high of 6,168.06 ft (Jun 23, 1997). Today's 6,117.41 ft is higher than 7% of the 369 monthly averages since 1996.
