We visited here on Saturday, the 10th. As you can plainly see, there's still lots of snow from California's record breaking winter of 2022-23. We wanted to go the weekend before, but the forecast for rain was high so we waited a week but the forecast was still for rain so we went anyway. We did not regret it in the least. We got rained on but it was so worth it:) Caples Lake is a reservoir that is located near Kirkwood, California along highway 88. The lake was used as a halting place for wagon travelers who were trekking the historic Mormon Emigrant trail during the Gold Rush. Surface elevation: 7,802′ Area: 600 acres. Thanks for your comments:) Caples
