At Lenora Lake through the warm days of summer highs are in the 80's, and throughout summer nights temperatures are in the 60's. Daytime highs through the winter are in the 50's, and nighttime lows at Lenora Lake all through the winter ordinarily plunge into the 30's. Now, you may feel
 
               that's plenty but there's even more amusing stuff to do here at Lenora Lake. You can run the rapids of Yellowleaf Creek - North Fork in the neighborhood of Lenora Lake. Lakes? Sure, Belcher Lake is nearby. All the water falling down from the sky makes Lenora Lake a wet spot; most of the rain falls through March, and October is the month with the least moisture.
