Our campsite. The firepit is there in the center. I meant to take a pic while our tent was up, but forgot.
It's cool how your nightly activity becomes chatting while staring at,
and rearranging, the fire. Why is that fun? Who knows, but it always is.
While we were fishing at this one spot (I wasn't fishing), a deer came down to
the water real close to us to drink. Pretty cool. It was literally 20 feet from my '"friend"
The lake was really cool in that the main entrance for swimming and launching by the campgrounds was really shallow
a long way out. You just kept walking and walking.
Of course we made jokes about Moses and stuff.
I liked it because I like swimming, but am also a chicken.
The view of the lake from our campground. It was inexplicably crowded,
and at first friend was bummed b/c we didn't get a likeside ground,
but the one we got across the road was far superior because it was private and really foresty.
On the way home, driving through Lassen national forest, we stopped at this other place. Deer Creek.
It also has campgrounds,
which my friend has camped and fished at many times.
It's a gorgeous river, I hope to camp there soon.
It was about a 45 minute drive from Butt Lake (hee hee, "butt")
