Eagles Nest Reservoir is a scenic man-made lake nestled in the eastern foothills of the Wasatch Mountains, just east of Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. Created in 1995 by damming a Creek, it serves as a critical component of the local water supply system, providing water for culinary, irrigation, and recreational purposes to the surrounding communities.
This location is at a higher altitude thus making it colder than down in the valley.
