About Cat Lake
This small site offers space for just one camping party, but additional day users should have room to park and launch a car top boat. One table, fire ring and outhouse are provided. This small lake offers a pleasant place for paddling, and anglers may be treated to some fairly productive fishing for wild rainbow trout.
