Moraine Lake (Chagoopa Falls)
(long, lat)
Description:
“Moraine Lake has no visible outlet that I could discover. It was formed in the bowl of a great gravelly, porous moraine, hence the name we gave it seemed particularly appropriate.” (William R. Dudley, in S.C.B., 1903, IV:4, p. 306.) From Place Names of the High Sierra (1926) by Francis P. Farquhar
