Major algae bloom ruined an otherwise great spot

Trip Overview

The nice wide, gradual concrete boat launch is great as is the parking lot with port-a-potty. The water is as bright green from an algae bloom as I’ve ever seen water. Despite my hopes that the water was just pooling there close to the dam, it took nearly a mile of paddling to get to slightly cleaner water.
