Had an opportunity to go by there last week.

Water level is coming up and it looks like the locals were using the lake at some point this past summer, based on the hazard buoy shown in the attached photo. (Sorry for the orientation. My phone is screwing with it lately)

Looks like we might get to use the state launch there next spring, if we get decent rain/snow before then.

View is from half way from the launch to where the access channel reaches the lake.
