Lake Almanor was created when the dam near Canyon Dam was finished in 1914. The lake inundated beautiful Big Meadows, once home to Maidu Indians, cattle and dairy ranches, and a number of resorts. It is now a favorite spot for water sports recreation. From Plumas County: History of the Feather River Region, by Jim Young.
