Decided this AM to take my bride for a road trip this afternoon. We left the house about 12:30 PM and drove over North Ogden Canyon to Liberty. There were lots of vehicles parked at the trail heads along that drive. From Liberty we drove around the west and south sides of Pineview for a look-see. I very small patch of ice remained in the very north end of the north bay. We pulled in at the Port Ramp and found 3 empty boat trailers attached to vehicles. The pull off just south of the Port Ramp had about a dozen cars parked there.There was one vehicle near the dam in the narrows area.
Drove around to the south side and went up over Trappers Loop heading to Lost Creek. After leaving I-84 at the Croydon Exit, we passed at least 15 vehicles coming back down with one of them pulling an 18 to 20 foot boat. There were 4 vehicles parked at the Lost Creek dam and about 4 in the area below the dam. The reservoir is ice free. Drove around to the boat launch ramp and saw one trailer. We could just barely see the boat towards the back of the northeast arm (going straight away from the dam). A DNR LEO was parked in his truck at the bottom of the boat launch. There was one toon out in the launch ramp bay that we could see. There were 8 to 10 bank tanglers in that arm as well.
Got back home about 4:15 PM. Nice trip and definitely nice to get away from the house for a few hours. Lots of folks out enjoyin' Mother Nature's bounty today. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Tight lines y'all.
