Description
What a beautiful view from one of the camp sites in the Lake Cascade State Park located in Idaho.
Lake Cascade (formerly "Cascade Reservoir") is a reservoir in the western United States, on the North Fork of the Payette River in Valley County, Idaho. Located in the Boise National Forest, it has a surface area of 47 square miles (122 km2), and is the fourth largest lake or reservoir in the state. The closest cities are Cascade, Donnelly, and McCall, all in the Long Valley of Valley County.
Lake Cascade State Park provides diverse and exciting recreational opportunities throughout all four seasons. Popular for all types of boating, prevailing winds on the water make it especially well suited for sailing and windsurfing. Rainbow trout, Coho salmon, small mouth bass and perch can be caught from the shore or by boat in the summer or through the ice in the winter. Hiking, bird watching, photography, mountain biking, all types of boating, ice fishing, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, and just plain relaxing are all easily accessible from Lake Cascade State Park. Lake Cascade offers two group camping opportunities, including Snowbank group camp and Osprey Point group yurts, 232 individual campsites in 9 developed campgrounds (with power, sewer, and water at Poison Creek and Ridgeview)two dispersed camping areas with primitive camping, several day use areas, and 6 boat launch ramps. The various campgrounds and facilities of the park are dispersed around Lake Cascade's forty-one square miles of surface water and 86 miles of shoreline. The office for the park is located in Cascade near the intersection of Dam Road and Lakeshore Drive.

Voted. You have marvelous color tones in this landscape of the lake. The fence in the foreground is a nice lead in to the rest of this delightful composition. The rich blues in the sky cause the clouds to pip out nicely. I like the way the lines of the element come together on the left side of the frame. The green tones look so natural. Everything comes together to make an outstanding image!

This looks like a beautiful spot. The old fence makes it look friendly in addition to its remoteness. I like this! voted
