The corn was killer, but I ended up going to the upper part of Lundy Canyon and not Tioga. Just sooooo many places to chose from. Im glad I did, because I discovered that beavers had made a new lake out of the once little pond. If it holds it may make for some bigger brook trout! Otherwise the snow is melting fast. I may not get another chance to go make turns which is a major bummer. Looks like the current project I am working on out of town may go longer than expected.

Thanks for the head's up. I was hoping to head up immediately after the road opens, but alas have prior obligations.
