What is the current water level of San Carlos Reservoir?

This lake reports storage (221 acre-ft as of Jul 14, 2026, 10:30 AM (UTC-07:00)) but no elevation gauge — its managing agency does not publish a pool-elevation reading here.

Is San Carlos Reservoir full right now?

Its managing agency does not publish a %-of-conservation-pool-full figure for this lake, so we show the bare level rather than estimate one.

Where does this data come from?

From USGS site 09469000, retrieved Jul 14, 2026, 10:55 PM (UTC+00:00). See the official link and the methodology page for the full source and update cadence.

Is this safe to use for boating or navigation?

No. Levels here are provisional readings for general reference only — not for navigation, dam-safety, or other safety decisions. Always confirm current conditions with the managing agency before making those calls.
