Cows in the campground, cow poop in the campground and on the trails and lots of flies in the bathroom. How is it possible that such a beautiful, once pristine lake and campground have free range cows throughout? Wow - that was a shock I was not ready for. We hiked into the East Humboldt Wilderness - same thing - cows and cow dung throughout the area.

I've camped at Angel Lake several times, and it is always a relaxing stay. The sunset over the mountains and the lake is beautiful and the mornings are quiet and peaceful. I usually camp here on my travels through Wells, so haven't spent much time enjoying the lake or the surrounding trails. Some day!
