About Red Fleet Reservoir

Red Fleet Reservoir covers about 498 acres in Uintah County, Utah and is classed as a reservoir.

Water level on this page comes from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reading at Red Fleet Dam & Reservoir, published through the Corps' CWMS data service. Wind, gusts and rain come from the National Weather Service forecast grid that covers the water.

On water this size, waves stay small even on windy days. The catch is gusts: shoreline terrain funnels the wind into sharp puffs that catch out small boats and paddlers. 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.
