Reading from Oct 26, 2026. Shaded band: range of October averages on record; dashed line is the typical level.
Lake Mackenzie was at 3,018.34 ft on October 26, holding steady over the past week (0.00 ft). That is below normal for October: the typical October level is 3,022.36 ft, so the lake is 4.02 ft below its usual mark.
Lake Mackenzie covers a stretch of water in Texas and is classed as a reservoir.
We read the level from USGS gauge 07298100, listed as Mackenzie Res nr Silverton, TX. Wind and weather come from the National Weather Service grid cell over the lake, so the numbers describe open water rather than the nearest airport.
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.
