Antelope Flat Reservoir is an impoundment located in the southern part of the Maury Mountains in Crook County, Oregon. It is formed by a 33feet high earth-fill dam built across Bear Creek for irrigation purposes. The western part of the lake is within the Ochoco National Forest. Though it covers 170acres when full, and has a storage capacity of almost 2000acre-feet with a maximum depth of 28feet and average depth of 11feet, the reservoir is often not filled to capacity, especially late in the irrigation season.[1] The lake resides at an elevation of 4984feet. A boat-launch ramp is located at the lake's western end, and a 25-unit campground lies just up the hill from there.
