Is Lookout Point Lake full?

Not quite — 101.4 ft below full pool as of September 23, 2026

How full is Lookout Point Lake? Not as a percentage: no storage figure comes through with this gauge reading, and a share of capacity worked out from the elevation alone would be a guess — how much water a reservoir holds at a given level is a curve only the operator's own capacity table knows. Feet from full pool is what the operator publishes, and it is the figure above.

Lookout Point Lake through the year

The band is the lake's own normal: where the level has run on each calendar day, 1980–2026. The summer drawdown — and how this year sits in it — shows up without reading a single number.

Full pool, datum, and the gauge

"Full pool" here means the conservation pool — the level the lake is designed to hold for water supply and recreation, not the flood-control space above it. The full explainer covers flood pool and dead pool too.

Full pool 926.00 ft NGVD29 · per USACE Portland District full-pool reference
Gauge USGS gauge 14149000 · U.S. Geological Survey National Water Information System
Datum NGVD29 — Full pool is the 926.0 ft top of the conservation pool; a large seasonal flood-control drawdown is normal here, so a long way below full pool is ordinary for much of the year.
