Nantahala Lake

I will never forget the first time I stepped foot into the Boundary Waters. It was February of 2016, a brutally cold weekend but one I will hold with me forever. My family and I took a day trip away from Camp Menogyn to go visit Rose Falls, one of the only waterfalls in Minnesota located in the Boundary Waters. When my mom told me we would be within park limits, I was ecstatic. Growing up, I heard stories from my parents and sister about the adventures they’d encountered in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. I felt so excited for my first experience.

Every summer for the past few years, I have been constantly on the gorgeous glittering waters of Lake Allatoona. I have experienced everything from boating to tubing and even jumping off of double decker docks. It’s hard to say goodbye to the waters for another year until Memorial Day. Even though I only see a small but beautiful portion of Lake Allatoona, the “Tri-State Water Wars” are still a large problem for this blossoming community surrounding Lake Allatoona.

The water is surrounded by beach like sand, picnic tables, and playgrounds for summer family fun. Although swimming is at your own risk the lake is cool and refreshing.

Some of its visitors only ever viewed it as a mosquito infested swamp while others would go on to call it their second home. To me however, I have always had a love hate relationship with its wooded trails and murky waters, yet I shall always cherish my memories of it in my heart. Regardless, Camp Long Lake is still one of my favorite places to visit with its quaint ecology conservation lodge, the various activities its main waterfront has to offer, and the thrills of sleeping

At New Melones, as the water level continues to drop, more anglers are trying bank fishing, especially for catfish which usually are close to shore this time of year.

Situated between Glacier National Park and Flathead Lake, in the northwest corner of Montana, just west of the Continental Divide, the Flathead Valley is a federally protected, breathtaking, scenic and recreational treasure.

Kalispell is the largest city in Flathead Valley and a commercial hub, and provides access to Wild Horse Island State Park.
