Carpenter Lake , officially Carpenter Lake Reservoir , is the largest of the three reservoirs of the Bridge River Power Project , which is located in the mountains west of Lillooet, British Columbia .

Several ranches and homesteads in the broad serpentine of the upper Bridge River basin were flooded out by the hydro project, which changed the character of the upper valley forever.
