The mud strip is all of 100' wide and 1400' long. It is hard as a rock when dry, look out for the three foot wide two feet deep hole about halfway down the runway on the west side. It can have some pretty good cross winds on some days so it can test not only your new skills but also practice your cross wind technique.  You can see my wife sat back and let me row her around the lake while she laid back in her sundress. The old canoe held up pretty well, she only got a little wet. Until 1967 the lake had a phenomenon called a  jökulhlaup, an Icelandic term for glacial lake outburst flood. The break up of this ice dam would send a violent wall of water down the river. Some say the earthquake of 64 had to do with the damn not being formed anymore.
