Why are there trees in the lake?During the time the lake was drained (2011-2017), trees and other plant life had an opportunity to grow in the lake bed. When the lake was filled in, the trees were left on purpose in order to provide habitat for fish. Over time the trees will die off, but the GRLC is hoping that some will survive as they continue to make great habitat for fish and birds.
