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. This lake is so wonderful. Stay the night at Pelham Koa Kampground, and the smiling folks of Birmingham-Hoover like to hang out close by.
