Fortress Lake Update

Some days go as expected, others not. When they do, some amazing things can occur. A recent hot spell through BC has seen the valley at Fortress Lake turn into a cooker - each day around 4pm the shade thermometer has read 31 to 36C and a breeze come from the west for an hour. The breeze actually carries heat and feels like a hair dryer blowing in your face and heats up the day even more rather than a cooling effect. Beautiful weather indeed!
Recently, a few nice trout have been caught. While the fishing has slowed to a few - a dozen fish a day per guest, 4 to 6 pound fish are still being caught. It's a good summer, indeed.
