About Dworshak Reservoir
Dworshak Reservoir covers about 16,362 acres in Idaho and is classed as a reservoir.
Water level on this page comes from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reading at DWORSHAK DAM AND RESERVOIR, published through the Corps' CWMS data service. Wind, gusts and rain come from the National Weather Service forecast grid that covers the water.
On a lake this size the wind has miles of open water to work with, so a 15 kt breeze can stack up a steep chop in the main basin while sheltered coves stay flat. Reservoir levels move with releases and inflow, so ramps and beaches can change week to week. The water level page tracks that day by day.
The go or no-go calls above are a starting point, not a guarantee. Read how we score conditions, and always check local rules and posted warnings before you launch.
