Jamison and Rock Lake Trails
DESCRIPTION:
Two nice lakes, with Jamison Lake offering relative solitude, especially by bushwhacking to the southern end. Planted to Brook trout (2000). Rock Lake (fishing resident Brookies) is the most photogenic and popular: deep, crystalline waters with dramatic bluffs marching down to dip their toes in the water. Both lakes are dammed and can be drawn down by late summer.
