One of my favorite pleasures of living in Siskiyou County is swimming in Lake Siskiyou.
And yesterday was perfect. I arrived around 6:30 with the air temperature at 88 degrees, and calm winds meant the surface waters were fairly warm.
I swam all the way across the lake from the south shore to the north shore, pausing in the middle to float and do a slow 360 as I took in Mount Shasta, Mount Eddy, and the forests and peaks of the Trinity Divide Mountains.
