Fresno Weir


Description: The Fresno Weir is the furthest downstream of several weirs between Pine Flat Dam and highway 180. Portage on river left. Look for an opening in the bushes just 20 or 30 feet away from the lip of the dam.

This weir is a ways below the big Mansion and immediately below the Friant Kern Canal siphon. It is still a couple miles or so from Highway 180.

Water is diverted into two canals on river right. Fresno Irrigation District and Consolodated Irrigation District get their water from this diversion. There is much less flow below this weir.
