A few lake statistics: size is 14 miles X 9 miles, average depth 60 feet, it's 40 miles around, covering 77 square miles. Its 3 times as salty as the ocean and 1000 times more alkaline than fresh water. Only 3 things can live in it, algae, brine shrimp and a fly that lays it's eggs under water. 80 percent of California's sea gulls nest here. We had a neat morning paddle and then a hike around the rim of a dormant volcano that provided expansive views of the entire lake. Tomorrow is Lake Tahoe.
Looks like an interesting paddle.looks like my previous comment again got dumped somewhere. So frustrating
