Since the low lake level of about 650 feet in December of 2015 the lake has risen more than 218 feet. The lake rose 99 feet in March adding more than a million acre-feet of water. The current lake level is at 868 feet which is 114 percent of its historic average level. According to Forever Resorts which operates the Bidwell Canyon Marina, the current snow pack is helping the lake to continue to rise and should soon reach the 900 foot mark making it as they say a "full pool".
