Cooper Freeman:
This lake is a long drive and there are 9 other nice lakes on the road to Faucherie. Very windy and rugged country, the fishing is tough but persistence pays. Used to be private and secluded, but now is very populated and has lost it's private feel. I recomending hiking 5 miles up the canyon to the next lake to get away from the citidits.



Bryan Nalette:
The place is ridden with Mosquitos, Wasps, and Bears.  The wind always picks up and blows through the group site, and makes most activities miserable.  The drive up is NOT worth it.  Avoid the group site.  There are tons of sites down the dirt road along the creek which offer better protection from the wind.  Best to camp someplace closer to civilization.  The drive is not worth it



Jamie Becerra:
I would love to go to this nice place. It is full of waterfalls and very secluded. I know because my family went there and I saw plenty of pictures. Going someday soon hopefully...
