Wright's Lake

Our final campground for the season?  Wright's Lake in the El Dorado National Forest.  We vacationed here for many years:  8 miles off the highway, a Sierra lake offering views of the mountains,  shallow waters warm enough for swimming, and a multitude of trails up to the mountains...

And this time we had the Lake and campground nearly to ourselves!  Only a few campers braved the chilly nights and a couple fisherman worked the Lake for the last of the rainbow trout.  I walked around the lake (no great distance) and wandered the campground checking out our old favorite sites (#24 had enough room to play whiffleball!).

It was a great end of the season.
