Default The lake is back!

Took a couple of days off to cruise the Nor-Cal 'Gold Rush Hwy 49' and Lake Oroville. Several interesting historic towns, and good to see the lake level higher than in recent years.

Unhappy good photo op...

Love the view and your bike, looks great. We are seeing snow tonight for the first time in 6 weeks.

I'm glad to see that or any lake in California with water in it. I just wish y'all could have half of the rain we have here.

Glad your levels are back up. Ours are still low....very low. Glad I didn't buy that boat last summer.

That's good to hear.
I,ve been riding that road for the last few years and was saddened by how the water level went down.
Bring out the boats.
