About Rendleman Lake Dam
The primary purpose of Rendleman Lake Dam is debris control. The dam is designed to catch sediment, rocks, and debris carried by flowing water — particularly important in areas prone to mudslides or heavy erosion. The dam is owned by Charles Rendleman (private). It impounds the Tr-wolf Creek near Baker.
The dam stands 20 feet tall, creates a reservoir covering 8 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 86 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 60 square miles. Completed in 1976, the structure is 50 years old.
This dam has a low hazard potential classification, meaning that failure would cause minimal damage, limited primarily to the dam owner's property, with no expected loss of life.
