The Merganser has been an elusive ducks for me to get a good picture of on the reservoir. They are very skittish and almost run across the water as they move from one site to the next.
I had opportunity for some great close ups here but I already packed my camera away in my pack – hope you have better luck!

This is a series of caches located right in the middle of development in this fast growing county. Thought you can hear progress all around you at times with imagine you can be in an alpine meadow, stand of trees, or viewing a mountain lake looking for that perfect spot to catch a fish.
Although there are no marked trails - there are trails through out the reservoir. In that most of the land use to be a farm their are old roads, fisherman, deer and atv trails.
Keep your eyes and hears open as the following wildlife has been spotted at one time or another, Deer, Geese, Ducks, Eagles, Tundra Swans, and Beaver to name a few.
