Mississippi Lake


At 3/4 of a mile long, Mississippi Lake is the largest reservoir in Coe Park.
It is a hard, all day hike from Coe Headquarters, the closest trailhead.
The best starting point for mountain bikers is from Coyote Creek; it is a longer ride
than from Headquarters, but most of the roads are less steep.

4 June 1997.
