Probably not an actual lake – maybe a very large pond. For the past month or so I’ve worked at a location requiring me to drive past this intriguing body of water, and the other day I turned off and found the entrance to a dirt and gravel road that runs about halfway around it. I noted three wooden picnic tables in good repair along the road. Looks like a good place for primitive camping, and I found a stone fire-ring at near the table furthest from the main road. Camping is probably prohibited here, but I saw no signs making any such declaration. Next time I am in the neighborhood, I may have to paddle the large pond on my way back. Here are a few of the photos I took:
-
- 1997 Volvo 850, Thursday, slid around a bit on this muddy dirt and gravel road, but was never in any real danger of getting stuck
-
- A small dock not visible from the main road through the industrial park or from the freeway
-
- I-24 seen from the road around the lake
