My sister and I were driving up forest road 4620 (past Indian Henry C.G.) and I saw a small body of water indicated on my map. I wanted to see if it was visible/accessible. It ended up being visible from the road. So I got out and tried to hiking down to the lake's edge, but the ground immediately off the side of the road was very squishy. I ended up just walking the section of road along where the lake was visible and tried to get a picture.

Marshy area on north end

The entire "lake" was pretty marshy, especially the north end. Water wasn't even visible from this point. It was along the west side of the lake were I could see the water through the trees. I found the lake and surrounding foliage to be beautiful, even though I was only able to see it from the road. It made for a fun adventure.
