There used to be a huge grandstand built out over the lake for diving competitions in the 1930's. The bottom is full of pilings. Look for the marked pilings in the middle near the outlet. That's the corner of the old stands. From there south and east is where it was. It's a great trout lake too, at the other end where Clover Creek flows in.

It's got some lunker bass in it, although I wouldn't eat any fish from that lake. They also release extra full grown salmon into it so you may get a surprise if you hook into one of those.

I like the history lesson on the diving. I would have never guessed. Is that end of the lake deep enough to dive into? That would be a cool picture to see. I like that old stuff like that, thanks again.
