2/23/2009 10:33:00 PMa lot of the older reports say that the access to the lake is all but cut-off by private property. Is there still some kind of Youth camp which doesn't allow you to park there any more?
I appreciate the report from an outlying lake, it's nice to hear about some of these tucked away ones.

2/24/2009 6:44:00 AMI fished up there a few times last summer. Caught a few nice cut-bows. After talking w/ the youth camp leaders i was granted access to fish that lake (forget name), but surrounding fontal and the lake w/ the youth camp on it is all private property. Fontal is just to the north of the youth camp lake. Be careful up there, as even w/ permission to be up there i was locked in twice.

Last year my first time up there we got locked in at the gate, we talked to a man who worked at the camp and said it was ok for us to fish the lake but not to park on the other end of the lake he told us to drop our gear off at the trail head and park the car on the public side of the gate. So it sounds like the trout up there are of nice size but cant get them to take a fly. Then again i have only hiked up there in the winter. Thanks lowvw for the heads up though.
