    Sitting at 13,020 feet elevation, the surface area and depth of Lake Waiau fluctuates significantly throughout the year. The lake swells in springtime to a maximal 6.7-8 feet depth before shrinking by summer's end to a third its size and under 3 feet deep, fed only by winter precipitation. Above 7.5 feet, it spills over into Pohakuloa Gulch.
