  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Survey of Crescent Lake, 1964 Abstract -- Crescent Lake, one of the impressive mountain lakes of Oregon, is located in Township 24 South, Range 6 East, on the east slope of the Cascade Range just southeast of Diamond Peak. Its south shore is skirted by the old Oregon Central Military Road, and the Southern Pacific Cascade Line passes a little to the east of the lake. It was named for its shape by B.J. Pengra and W.H. Odell in July, 1865. A dam located at the mouth of Crescent Lake was first constructed in 1922 to be used for irrigational purposes. Later, in 1954, another larger dam was constructed. The purpose of surveying Crescent Lake was to obtain the necessary physical, chemical and biological characteristics needed for fishery management. Also presented in this report are past records of creel censusing, gill netting, fish stocking, water temperatures, and water levels.
