I''ve read everything by Keroauc and Desolation Angels is one of my favorites. Sadly Christine sprained her ankle on a hike a few weeks before our trip and we couldn''t do any extended hikes on this one. The hike will be there for us next time. The invasive fish is the Red Sided Shiner. Paul — Desolation Peak was on the original plans. I”ve read everything by Keroauc and Desolation Angels is one of my favorites.

I''ve been up there a couple times. In the future consider a hike up to Desolation Peak (it''s a most of a day affair, but be sure to read Desolation Angels by Kerouac first!) From there you get a whole different look at the lake, and the mountains too. Oh yes, don''t forget to try to exclude weekends next time.

Yeah, you missed some awesome heat here in town, I was wondering if you were getting fried being out and exposed on the water. Sounds like you had a great mix of weather, though.
