We rented canoes and paddled the whole lake in a couple of hours. On our way back to the dock we saw a family of otters playing.
Wade Lake sits in the bottom of a mountain valley. It is a beautiful lake. While hiking on the south end of the lake, I heard the sound of water and followed a small stream into the trees. There was a flume and the prettiest, mossy area below it. It was a nice surprise. (The flume was of corregated pipe and carried water from a stream on the other side of the road above it.) Loved our visit there with the autumn colors.
lovely place for fishing, swimming, hiking, skiing, painting, babysitting, and just hanging out
This was one of the funnest camping destinations I have been to. The trails offer great hiking, the lakes are full of fish, and my kids had a great time swimming in the crystal clear water.
