Fun reservoir to play in. Nice cool weather compared to Boise. Lots of wash boards on the road. Leeches on the south end. No cell service/ AT&T and Verizon even with booster pack.

Beautiful campground. We hiked along the whole lake, taking pictures and flying my drone. Took about 3 1/2 hours. We got rained on and hailed on but it was a great experience. Sleeping in 30 degree weather sucked though.
