Visited 02/03/2018 – Jeff and I loaded up our two dogs, Summer and Skye and took a nice weekend camping trip up to Black Butte Lake / Reservoir. We visited three lakes/reservoirs on our trip that are located on the western edge of the Sacramento Valley along the foothills of the Mendocino National Forest. First stop was East Park Reservoir which is the only lake on my list of 300 that is located in Colusa County, California. Located 30 miles west of the town of Maxwell, this reservoir was hard to get to because they close all the access roads for the camping areas on the east side of the lake during the winter months. We traveled to the west side through the town of Stonyford and attempted to enter the lake from the north side. All we encountered after a very bumpy 2 mile one lane road was another gate. This reservoir is 1,820 acres and rests at an elevation of 1,205 feet above sea level.
