Back out on the lake 2011 (-:

**mbiraman** · 04-25-2011, 22:54

So after a cold and long winter its nice to get out on the lake again. Sunday was about 15C/60F and i found myself just loading everything up and heading north.

I got to Silverton to warm sun, calm lake and nobody on it. I loaded up the Kayak and put my immersion stuff on, still not quite use to that,water 47F, and headed out.

I was heading to Bannock point.

I stopped for lunch

The wind started to pick up and i decided to start heading back .When i got back i just didn't feel done so i laid on the beach , made some tea and watched some ducks. Those picks weren't so good but i did get one last view shot before the sun started to get low.

Allot of these pics will be familiar from trips i did last yr but now there's snow on the mnts,,,,cool.

From Spokane to the Nelson area is about 3.5 hrs. Most of the Rec sites don't open till the 15th-30th of may . Most of the hiking trails don't open till summer because of snow. . Once the Rec sites are open doing the Nelson /New Denver loop is an eye opener.

Vito , Fronkey,,,,,,, mountains are beautiful,, fresh water and air is another benefit you don't see right away.

I was thinking the same thing...

That looks like a great place and the fact that it is open already really makes me anxious to get out. I'm patiently waiting for the roads to open here.
