View From The Parking Lot

Trail Thoughts and Musings

Shortly after crossing the dam, the boat launch and parking area can be seen on the right. It is adjacent to the water, and has a few picnic tables. The view of the reservoir set against the Santa Cruz mountains invokes an intense feeling of peace. Here the fog can be seen creeping over the crest of the mountains. As serene as it appears here, it must be pointed out that the reservoir posses many faces.
