| The stream feeding into the north fork of the reservoir. |
| In April the melting snow creates a substantial flow. |
| The trail has some obstacles. |
| After about a mile we reach the reservoir. |
| There are many tree stumps left from before the dam. |
| The water is low before the main snow melt arrives. |
| We now have to make our own trail as this portion is under water much of the year. |
| The dam comes into view just as the side becomes too steep to follow. |
