Nice sandy rock bottom with a nice drop off reminiscent of Twin Lake, but much clearer. There are Jack and Perch in this lake and there were a few boats out. 4$ for the day area, with some good picnic sights right on the hill with paths leading down to the lake. Also the lake was surprisingly warm- I was in for 2 hours and was toasty, even with some good hangs in the thermocline below 10 metres.
There is a lake just north of this one called Narrow Lake as well, that is supposed to be very similar, with no beach area due to severe dropoffs on the bank.

Cool Erik. How long did it take to get there? How is the entry?
