Description
Trail #1191
Easy access to fishing around the lake. The lake is stocked yearly and is good fishing for 10-12 inch trout.
From the east side entrance the trail starts on the left and goes across the dam. It follows the shoreline fairly closely with easy access to the lake. There are three bridges and one boardwalk to avoid the wetland areas. The trail ends at the west side parking lot.
