The Winchester Reservoir Unit includes a lake that is actually a wide spot in the Winchester Wasteway, with an average depth of about 6 feet and the surrounding landscape is relatively flat with the lake in a natural low area. Gravel boat launches are on the south and upper east sides of the lake. Most of the lake is surrounded by cattail and bulrush marsh; habitat where waterfowl and shorebirds dominate. The uplands are a mix of tall wheatgrass or intermediate wheatgrass with big sage/bluebunch wheatgrass in some areas.
