I ride across the dam to the other side of Paradise Lake, where I remember there being two campsites
Small, fragrant tarweed flowers enliven the trail on the dam with bright yellow. Like other lakes in Henry Coe State Park, Paradise Lake didn't exist until a dam was built here, probably by ranchers.
