Eldridge Lake
 | Many years ago, my Grandfather, Jonas L. Fuller, with the help of my Mom, when she was but a girl, measured the bottom of Eldridge Lake and proved that it is not bottomless as folklore has it. He used a rowboat and a fishing reel and a heavy lead sinker on the end of the line. He would drop the sinker until it hit bottom and then measure the line. He had made a grid of the lake using points on the shore to line up on and did a reading every few feet all over the lake....I remember the swings ride going out over the water when I was about 10 years old (the old wooden rollercoaster was enough to scare any 10 year old) I was woundering if row boats or other water craft are leagal to take on the lake as I have not seen any on the lake in quite some time.... |
Lake Ondawa
 | 12 miles away I was there last sunday night. The flares were beautiful. I did read a sign however that said ''No open fires''. Yet on the public beach side there was an open fire. Who was granted permission to do this? I also noticed a camper parked near the lake on the old softball field. Does this mean we can use that area as a campground? I would love to go camp there. I would reserve a spot all summer long. Bonfires and what not....Pretty little lake in Bradford County... |
