[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000]Two or 3 years ago, I did some checking on Lost Creek as far as being part of the East Canyon State Park. The EC manager informed me that it had not been EC's responsibility for several years and the only LEO presence there would be either the County (Sheriff) or Utah CO's. No STATE pass was, or is, required to use the facility. And to the best of my knowledge, there is no pay station (State OR Federal) at that facility. The only improvement there is the concrete launch and pit toilet and it is free to use as far as I know. If anybody is really interested in find out any more about this reservoir, I would suggest contacting the [font "Arial"]United States Bureau of Reclamation (BoR) in Provo as it falls under their jurisdiction. Here is a quote from the Recreation.gov website:[/font][/#800000][/font]

[url "http://www.usbr.gov/projects/Facility.jsp?fac_Name=Lost+Creek+Dam"]Lost Creek Dam[/url] and Reservoir, [url "http://www.usbr.gov/projects/Project.jsp?proj_Name=Weber Basin Project"]Weber Basin Project[/url], are on Lost Creek, 12 miles upstream from its confluence with Weber River in an open setting northeast of Croyden, Utah at the 6,000-foot elevation.. Recreation at Lost Creek Reservoir is directly managed by the Bureau of Reclamation. The site has primitive facilities and no on-site manager or law enforcement. Use at your own risk. The narrow lake only allows wakeless boating on its 360 surface acres. Fishing is a popular activity at the reservoir and game species include rainbow trout and cutthroat trout. Improved gravel roads beyond provide access around the reservoir. Francis Canyon and Lost Creek Dam U.S. Geological Service maps cover the area. There is no overnight camping.
