Description And Directions
- Site Description: This site is located on the southwest side of Glimpse Lake. The site is located in a semi-open forest but is generally shady under spruce and fir trees. Although there is a rough cartop boat launch at this site, a better public boat launch can be found on the other side of the lake just before you enter the community. This recreation site is a popular location for fishermen, hunters and campers.
