Lake Amador is a reservoir located in Amador County, California. It lies at an elevation of 325 feet.[3]
The lake's water is impounded by the Jackson Creek Dam, a 193-foot (59 m) tall earth-and-rock dam, built in 1965 across Jackson Creek. The dam is 1,140 feet (350 m) long and 11 feet (3.4 m) wide and contains 1,223,000 cubic yards (935,000 m3) of material. Its crest is 481 feet (147 m) about sea level, and it belongs to the Jackson Valley Irrigation District.[2] The reservoir's capacity is 22,000 acre-feet (27,000,000 m3).[2]
Lake Amador was the site of the Gold Rush rock music festival on October 4, 1969.[4] Performers included Ike & Tina Turner, Santana, Bo Diddley, Albert Collins, and Taj Mahal.[5]
