Visited on 10/2/2017 while driving to give an examination at Owens Valley Conservation Camp. Grant Lake is on western end of the scenic June Lake Loop. This 1,095 acre lake is at an elevation of 7,654 feet above sea level and lies in the shadow of Mt. Ritter in a picturesque alpine basin on the June Lakes Loop, Grant Lake is an outdoorsman’s dream. The lake boasts abundant fishing, camping, waterskiing and wake boarding. There was one fisherman in a small boat on the lake the afternoon that I visited. Grant is the second largest of four lakes located on the loop, and is actually a reservoir for the Los Angeles aqueduct system. Because the lake acts as a water supply, water levels can vary dramatically throughout the year. Grant lake is located off California State Route 158, on the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
