Lost Valley Reservoir
 | 14 miles away 1 PHOTO When we were there in September the water was very low.We didnt have to much luck fishing but I seen a couple people that caught one or two. It's a nice little lake but has a lot of bees and cattle were running all through the camp grounds. We even had a bull that was throwing up dirt and stomping his feet like he wanted to charge us. I don't know why in a forestry campground they would allow this where people camp. Anyway if you can put up with that go for it.We wont be going back.... |
