Pics of the Day: Iron Lake

Published by Mike Ingels at 9:22 pm under Washtenaw Hiking/Nature

 

While on our Fall Color tour on Saturday afternoon, Kathy and I stopped at the Iron Lake impoundment at the corner of Ely Road and Sharon Hollow Road in southwest Washtenaw County.

The lake is incredibly beautiful.  And the wind was so strong that day that the waves were crashing all over the lake.

There is a little fishing spot on the creek side of the impoundment with some nice rocky areas.

I posted a pin on Microsoft Virtual Earth maps to show you the spot:

    Wow, I never saw this lake look so good. We used to fish on this lake when I was a kid. We would catch bluegill, sun fish and occasionally bass to take home to stock our pond. In the fall, we would drive around and look for hickory nut trees too.
