Redwood  Bob:
Dry Lake is NOT a good place to camp, or fish.  Forest Service has failed to keep water weeds and water lilies out which is destroying the fishery. Summer days are HOT, winters cold, lots of bugs in summer.  At the present rate of invasive water weeds, this lake will be a marsh bog in a few years.

               Lake is Goose Creek; don't leave Dry Lake without first going for a hike along the French Hill Trail. Man, is there plenty of entertaining things to do in the Coast Ranges.
