Just hanging around

Pretty decent location. Slept in my tent with the perfect view of the lake in the morning.

Nice lake

This is a nice camping spot. Close to interstate. Which you can hear. Heard a train go by a few times. Lake gets a few fisherman throughout the day. Only 4 spots which filled up before dark. No water or dump. Campsites are right on edge of lake.
