LEWIS'' -Jordan nospam@jlewis.4d2.org Russell Hunter: Barton Lake, aka Lake Barton, is no longer a useable lake for water recreation. 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.
