Visited on 6/11/2018 on our way back from Springfield, Oregon to visit family and to attend Jeff’s niece, Hannah’s High School graduation ceremony we stopped on the way back to check out Butt Valley Reservoir just southwest of Lake Almanor and 12 miles from the town of Chester, California. Butt Valley Reservoir is a 1,600 acre picturesque mountain lake that lies at an elevation of 4,150 feet and is five miles long and about three-quarters of a mile across. Owned by PG&E, Butt Valley Reservoir is connected to nearby Lake Almanor and is the second level of PG&E's "Stairway of Power." It is widely known as a great fishery for trout, and nearby Yellow Creek is a favorite with catch and release fly-fishermen. Several nice campgrounds here are maintained by PG&E with lake front views.
