Originally from Oregon the lakes are amazing, the mountains and fresh air is breath taking. If you have the chance to witness Howard Prairie Lake after the winter has hit and still has signs of snow you will love it. The water has an aqua blue look.

It is way up in the mountains so it did not get very warm. Very far from town, so don't forget anything! The lake is really for fishing...

From horseback riding to camping, hiking, boating, fishing, or just relaxing by the campfire, Howard Prairie has always been a great high-country get away.
