Mountain Meadows Reservoir Kayaking

Mountain Meadows Reservoir is like being on a treasure hunt. If you can find the reservoir, you have found the treasure. You notice that I said “if”. Finding this reservoir in a maze of dirt roads through a towering conifer forest will almost guarantee you will become lost either on the way to the reservoir or on the way back out. If I didn’t know for certain there was a reservoir of a relatively large size, on my first visit, I would have sworn Mountain Meadows Reservoir didn’t exist.

It took me more than two hours zigzagging back and forth on dirt roads through the dense forest to find the reservoir. It may also be a problem for you to find this mysterious retreat because trees were being cleared to lay new roads when I was here. Unfortunately, none of the dirt roads were marked, and it is extremely easy to lose your bearings, but once you find this pretty reservoir, you’ll be glad you did.

The beautiful natural setting of Mountain Meadows Reservoir, with very few facilities, provides a peaceful paddling experience. You are liable to be the only one there. Recreation use at Mountain Meadows Reservoir is primarily fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boarding.
