The lake is down as far as it can go with the silt run in full force. No good for water sports but still a great time to watch wildlife or hike the trails. Also nice time for a picnic in one of the old time CCC shelters. Looks like the lake will be full by the end of July, and water sports time again.

Love watching the Bluebirds in all the new houses in the park |
While the lake is nothing more than a river this post has a few shots I took in the park the past couple of weeks.
