On Wikipedia

John C. Boyle Reservoir is an artificial impoundment behind John C. Boyle Dam on the Klamath River in the U.S. state of Oregon. The lake is 16 miles (26 km) west-southwest of Klamath Falls along Oregon Route 66. The dam is at about river mile (RM) 225 or river kilometer (RK) 362, about 10 miles (16 km) by river downstream of the community of Keno. Spencer Bridge carries the highway over the lake at about its midpoint. Water from the reservoir is diverted through a sluice to the Boyle Powerhouse, about 5 miles (8 km) downstream of the dam. Fluctuations of up to 3 feet (0.9 m) daily in the reservoir level occur as water is added for storage or diverted for power generation.
