This is a shot across Caples Lake standing on the second Dam. Located in Amador County off Highway 88 you can't miss it, Highway 88 runs across the second Dam. I pass by this lake when I fish on the Carson River in the Hope Valley and around Markleeville in the eastern Sierras. Plenty of good fishing in and around this lake, with small lakes and streams teaming with Trout.

It was quite hazy due to smoke that day as can be seen in the image... but I took the shot anyway. The Pacific Crest Trail runs just behind those mountains in the background. Caples lake is located at 7820 feet ASL and 80 miles SE of Sacramento.

Enjoy,

Don
