Kinnikinick Lake
Kinnikinick Lake is a relatively out of the way, open country body of water where people can recreate for the day. Bring your canoes, kayaks, and small motorboats to enjoy watching wildlife and fishing for Channel Catfish, Rainbow, Brown, and Tiger trout. Common visitors to the lake are elk, deer, and bald eagles. Occasionally antelope sightings are reported. Motorboats are restricted to 8hp or less.
See Kinnikinick Lake Picnic Area for additional information about the picnic grounds.
