  • Trinity Lake, previously called Clair Engle Lake, is a lake on the Trinity River formed by the Trinity Dam and located in Trinity County, California, The dam was built by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. The lake has a capacity of 2,447,650 acre-feet (3.02 km³), making it one of the largest reservoirs in California. The lake's surface is at an elevation of 2370 feet. Trinity Lake captures and stores water for the Central Valley Project, which provides the Central Valley with water for irrigation and produces hydroelectric power. This lake is known for its many small arms, glassy inlets and great water skiing conditions. After the death in office of California United States Senator Clair Engle in 1964, the lake was renamed in his honor, but this name never received wide currency, particularly with local residents, and the name eventually was officially reverted to the widely-used original one. Asking a local resident for directions to "Clair Engle Lake" may result in a prank, in which the unsuspecting individual is sent to the local sewage treatment facility. The lake is serviced by several marinas, including Trinity Alps and Estrellita marinas on the south end of the lake, and Trinity Center marina at the north. Most of the marinas rent houseboats to vacationers year round.

Der etwa 30 km lange See hat eine Kapazität von 3,02 km³ und ist damit einer der größten Wasserspeicher Kaliforniens. Von 1964 bis 1997 hieß der See offiziell Clair Engle Lake, nach dem Senator Clair Engle.
