Snag Lake is a lake located in the north eastern part of Lassen Volcanic National Park in California.

Description

The large Snag Lake is located to the south of Cinder Cone and the Fantastic Lava Beds at an elevation of 6,050 ft (1,840 m). Water from the nearby Horseshoe Lake empties into Snag Lake via Grassy Creek. Water from Snag Lake continues to flow through the porous lava field that led to the lake's creation eventually making its way into Butte Lake.
