Big bad Lake Welch. Well, not that big but one of the bigger lakes in Harriman. And not bad in any way, very very tame actually.
Lake Welch Beach is pretty big
In case anybody was curious what that shit is
First dam of the day
Under the road, to access the back bowl
There is an otter in that picture. It didn’t come out great. It’s not all that often you see an otter in this area. Beaver are way more common and this is beaver territory for sure but this one stuck its head way up high out of the water to check me out and didn’t dive until I started getting close. Then it popped up again, further away, to take another look at me. Beaver never do that.
By my count there are seven turtles in this pic. They don’t let you get real close either.
This one didn’t spook though
All the way back away from the road, I found the second dam of the day
I wasn’t up for portaging over to explore further. The beaver pond is probably about a foot and a half or maybe two feet higher than the lake.
Back through to the main part of the lake
I forgot to start it until after I was out on the water. And it recorded it as a walk instead of a paddle.
Not sure how it came up with 144 steps or 50 feet of vert.
