Late this morning, I decided to take a Jeep drive to McGaffey Lake in the Cibola National Forest.
It had been two years since I last been there. When I was there, the lake was all dried up with only mud in the middle of it.
Today, the lake was full and only inches from reaching the top of the spillway. Oldtimers here have said that this has been the fullest the lake has been in years.
I took Six Mile Canyon Road through the canyon until it ended at the McGaffey Lake Recreation Area. The campgrounds haven't been opened yet. There were some people fishing. I don't know if the lake has been stocked with fish this year.
After looking over the lake, I took Highway 400 to a side road to Six Mile Canyon Road. I decided to save wear and tear on the tires by cutting 2 miles of winding road by going this way.
Naturally, I took some photos:
