This is wonderful scenic place. We did see a large
rattle snake, the bats are welcome addition to rid
the area of mosquitos. The paddling was like
gliding through silk.The sunsets were magnificent
with views of Mt Shasta and other small lava cones.
there are many birds on the lake, water is very cold
in the spring fed areas, otherwise swimming is
possible along the shores. I spotted large fish, and
a few guides with clients fishing nearby. There are
3 camp areas, with outhouses, picnic tables and
many sites to set up your tents. have fun!

This is the place to go if you want solitude(the nearest campsite is 300 feet away-our nearest neighbor was over a mile away at Horr Pond),abundant wildlife and awe-inspiring scenic beauty. Pack your boat carefully-you no longer have your vehicle nearby- which increases the sense that you are in a very wild area. I recommend not venturing outside of the camp areas or off-trail as the territory is very rugged and getting disorientated within a few yards is a very real possibility. We enjoyed a visit one evening by bats, and even though they feasted on the mosquitoes, we were still the main course. The paddling to various inlets and coves as well as up the Little Tule river gave us wonderful wildlife viewing. With proper respect for the wildness of this park, it is a very rewarding and memorable experience. Highly recommended.
