A COUPLE OF POSTS ALL IN ONE

 

 

KAYAKING COMO LAKE

 Connie and I did a great little paddle on Como Lake for our first kayaking of the year.  The water was great - flat and no wind.  We were out of shape for paddling but managed to make it up to the falls and back!

The kayak ready to go.  We were one of the first to get out on the water as we like to get up early and get going.  It was really crowded when we came back in.

The lake was full and so we kayaked through the cottonwoods right at first. Just a few pictures of the trip to the falls.

SAND BASIN

Our next trip was driving up Skalkaho Pass and over to Granite County then headed into the Sand Basin area.  It had been years since I was there and a first for Connie.  Great looking country and a lot of meadows.

Lots of little creeks and most have small trout in them.

BURNT FORK LAKE WITH CARL, DEB, AND ELAINA

We drove up Willow Creek past the lookout and down to where you can hike into Burnt Fork Lake.  It is a man made lake for irrigation down in the valley.  Pretty place though.

Spring flowers all over.

Fishing was not the best although they did have a bite or two.

And we had a squirrel waiting to see if we left any food for him.
