               So many amusing things to do here in the Southern Cascade Range, too great to be true. A splendid nearby hotel is Best Western Rose Quartz, and if you've had enough of Ballard Reservoir, Bufflehead Reservoir is nearby.
All year is a great time in the Southern Cascade Range if you have a thing about the outdoors. This lake is so wonderful. A glorious location like Halls Flat here at Ballard Reservoir is too good to miss, and get wet paddling on Pit River. This lake is one of the great places here in the Southern Cascade Range.
