Very pretty lake indeed.

It certainly is. Once you get away from the dam, it has the feel of a remote Adirondack pond. We took a short hike to Indian Cliffs with a great view of the reservoir and surroundings from there, but plentiful beer cans at the overlook. Kids coming over from Smoke Rise I guess, because from the parking it's a 6-8 mile hike depending on your approach.

I really hope that the planned boat ramp isn't built because it will totally change the aesthetics of the area. I really don't want to see it filled with bass boats. Even if they make it electric only, the ramp will bring in all of the yahoos. The steep, 100 yard carry to the water keeps a lot of them out.
