High Mountain Dams in Upalco Unit, Water Lily Lake Dam, Ashley National Forest, 1.1 miles Northeast of Swift Creek Campground, Mountain Home, Duchesne County, UT
Summary
Significance: The Water Lily Lake Dam is the oldest manmade structure to reservoir a natural lake in the Swift Creek drainage. With a crest length of 64 feet, it is the smallest of the dams in the Upalco Unit of the Central Utah Project. The reservoir was never a water storage success and has reverted to near a natural state. Long left unused, the dam on Water Lily Lake has deteriorated significantly and no longer functions to impound water for active storage.
