Spruce Lake

Most every year Joe, a friend, and I make an early trip to Spruce Lake to try out the fishing. Spring 2004 Joe and I tried the trip a little too early. Below are some photos from our trip on April 19, 2004.

	Here's a photo of Joe at the sign at Fern Lake. Gives an idea of the amount of snow on the trail. Breaking trail was a challenge.		Photo of sign. Cut throat - catch & release only.

	Here is a photo of Joe after getting the news. All that work and no fish		Here is a photo of Frozen Spruce Lake.
