... John, It's legit. The Truckee isn't very navigable near Lake Tahoe; too fast and rocky. But once it gets down to the desert, and before it evaporates and...
A boat with hypnotic presence, and a stunning photo. Maybe shallow draft could work elsewhere shown here. http://geology.com/lakes-rivers-water/nevada.shtml...
All seniors and disabled get discounts at Richardson Park, per Corps of Engineers web site, did you get yours ?? I asked and was refused, great place to...
It seems to me that the Truckee is pretty shallow. However sans rudder and centerboard the pictured boat would only draw about 6-10 inches of water. A real...
During the Havasu thing, I talked to a fellow from Reno who had a Mac 26. I asked him if he ever sailed on Pyramid lake and he said he never goes there. ...
Thanks Lou, I like to know I'm not the only one who might look at options to sloppy service at camp sites. Â Looking forward to Paulina, among others, you bet....
previously, Lookout Lake, behind dexter, has let boaters be locked in overnight. Â As long as they camp on the water (or find one of the popular "bootleg"...
Cal, Holler when you plan to go up there. I'd like to go along. Have always wondered about boating there. Keep on Steamin' Joe L ... From: Cal Drake...
Can do, Joe -- we can take mine, as the lake has two really long fingers to explore. Â Hoping the rangers are there to ask, otherwise I take a bunch of $1...
By all means check out Fern Ridge Shores, Cal, and let us know what it's like. Things to check: Campsites in the shade? We'll never get Mary there if she can't...
An overnight stay makes a trip from Portland much easier. Four hours of driving on top of a day's fun is getting a little over the top for a rapidly aging...
Yes that extra stay would make it way easier. HAH! Summer season parking passes are available on site for $50. Not closed like the other park, unless of low...
The Lane County Parks overnight parking pass lets you park your vehicle after dark, or overnight, at the three County parks with marinas -- Richardson, Orchard...
I know you miffed at the County Parks right now, but try to keep your arithmetic straight. ;o) The County parks charge a day use fee of $3, which includes...
Lookout Point Reservoir has never looked very appealing to me. It's long and narrow and the wind howls up or down it, but never across it, so going anywhere...
The Truckee debouches into Pyramid Lake. Here's an account (in The Atlantic) of taking Nettie down the Truckee to the lake: http://preview.tinyurl.com/777mhtt ...
John's right. Lookout is very long, however it is wider than it looks. There are alots of little coves on it and at the east end there is a gental southern...
Yeah thanks from over this way too, I'll save your notes for reference later, Haven't been up that way since the dam was worked on last year. But I will plan...
Parking us across the lake, then opening the Richardson ramp 30 minutes later was a crock. Not being able to find the dock assignments file (on the table),...
Just the guy to talk to about staying on the lake, overnight but not on land. I was told that I could leave my launch vehicle locked in the lot overnight, but...
I believe they still allow cars overnite at Dexter with permit at Lowell State Park. Don't know about Fall Creek. I will check it out and get back with you...
What happened last year? Year before last the Gooches were still running Richardson, and they didn't much care about being helpful, but last year Sarah and Don...
I will try out fern Ridge Shores next Thursday, and stay overnight to check out the facilities, and do a jungle cruise during the day. Might take the lap top...
Great John, love to have you aboard. I want some others to also look at the facilities -- for a more rounded view of what is offered. Also I should apologize...
