Lake to me means natural. To be fair I'd call that a reservoir. It is retagged as a Lake on lots of marketing stuff. That reservoir feeds water to the CA Aqueduct, water for LA and farming. It's part of a 400 mile long system. Largest producer and consumer of electricity in CA.
The boating and recreation aspects are, some argue, just the misdirect for the public.
Lake Mead is going be upset that it has been demoted to a reservoir!! As will many other lakes in the west. Jokes aside, the reduced water level in ALL California lakes reservoirs, rivers and streams is sad indeed. Hopefully this winter we get the El Niño we've been predicted to get the last two or three years.
