On Saturday the 11th, my brother Kelly, and I hiked into the Upper Oregon Lake. The trail to the lake, which is little more than a game path, is really getting grown over in several spots and hard to hike through. The hike is just at 1 mile with about a 700 feet climb over the low saddle and then 400 feet down to the lake. We were a bit late getting going and didn't get to the lake until after 10 am. The fish quit biting by 11 as it started to get warm. I didn't keep any fish but Kelly kept the Brook Trout he caught. Usually the fishing is very good, but not that day. We kicked around and had lunch before heading back to the truck.
