Lusk Reservoir is located next toMichie Stadium at theUnited States Military Academy atWest Point. It is open for fishing in the Spring and early Fall, and usually freezes over during the winter months. The volume of the reservoir is required knowledge of all freshmen (plebes) at the Military Academy. It is one aspect of what is known as 'Academy Heritage'. When asked the question: "How many gallons in Lusk Reservoir?"plebes are expected to respond "78 million US gallons (300,000 m³) when the water is flowing over the spillway." The proper answer had been 92.2 million US gallons (349,000 m³) until construction ofMichie Stadium reduced it to its current size.^[2] Its surface elevation is 327 feet (100 m)above sea level.[1]

Prior to 1930, the school'sice hockey team used the reservoir as their home rink during the winter months. This practice was discontinued after the construction of theSmith Rink.

The reservoir was constructed by Captain James L. Lusk (USMA 1878) in 1895. In the spring of 2006, the dam underwent its first cleaning in 111 years by the US Army Corps of Engineers.^[3]
