Little Crater Lake

Little Crater Lake, Lassen Nat Forest

June 27th Susanville was hot, hot hot in the upper 90's.  There was a car show but the idea of walking around hot pavement with the sun beating down on us was a no go.  So we loaded up the kayaks and headed to Little Crater Lake.  It was a lovely 81 degrees with a light breeze.  There were a lot of people splashing around, fishing and camping.  The campground was over ½ full.  The lake is down around 12 feet by our guess, so pretty low.  It took us 15 min to paddle around the edge.  So we did it twice. 



Bird watching was great.  An Osprey was fishing, around 7+ Robins looking for worms in the mud and a rare sighting of a Lewis's Woodpecker (at least for me)
