That was his favorite catfish haunt. Says Steve K. Join ''I swam in Barton Lake'' group on facebook and share your pictures and stories.

The lake dried up in 1980's and never was revived. There is currently a hiking and biking path that goes through a forest that has grown where the lake used to be with a little meadow or clearing in what used to be the center of the lake. Boat docks still exist with trees growing beneath and around them. Says Russell Hunter            Map Detailed Map Weather Local weather forecast
