| An in / out trail runs along the south shore of the lake and is accessed near the boat launch. This trail can be wet at times so appropriate clothing is advised. Elk are prevalent on this unit and the lakes provides for some of the largest waterfowl populations on the wildlife area. This is a popular fishing site with abundant populations of warmwater species and trout. A boat launch can be accessed on the east end of the lake and take note -- internal combustion engines are prohibited. |
