Views from Lake Don Pedro. La Grange CA

By

I had the pleasure of camping and spending a few days on Lake Don Pedro.  It is located in La Grange, CA.  You can camp at several locations along the shore of the lake and at designated areas in the campgrounds.

I needed ice, and sundries...  So I headed to the houseboat dock to get some supplies.

They rent boats...  Sail boats, fishing boats, ski boats, etc..  Lots of stalls, and a well maintained dock area.

Fish at Lake Don Pedro

As my son and I were eating ice cream on the dock, we noticed a boy looking down into the water...  I walked over, I looked in the water and there were some enormous carp just swimming...  It seems that people have been feeding the fish just like ducks...

There has been lots of rain in the last year in Northern CA, so a lot of the lakes and reservours are pretty full. Yup, that's my grey truck at the end on the left...

Hi Chris, loving the blue sky! We could use some more of that in Central Md. - way too much rain lately. Those carps look indeed like they are waiting for some "goodies"!

Chris, Lake Don Pedro is very near where we use to live in Groveland. You pass right by it on your way there. The carp are not welcome fish in any lake. They take over and kill the native fish. It is an every present problem in our lakes. Love the photos. Have a great week and keep taking photos....of your KW event!

Nice pictures and it's great to spend time with the family. Northern California is beautiful. Sure beats the desert sometimes.
