Connell Lake Trail

The Connell Lake Trail starts at the Connell Lake Dam and circles about halfway around the reservoir and ends at Talbot Lake.

The trail ends at a single tent platform just short of the main body of Talbot Lake and a little before that there is a fork in the trail that ends at a bridge across the creek. To get to the main part of the lake you have to bushwhack, I haven’t tried it but crossing the bridge looks like it would be the better way to go.

Heading back

Early Sparring Match

I believe the reason young bucks with deformed racks and broken antlers are fairly common is they start butting head when their antlers are still soft. They usually grow back normally the next year.
