Welcome to the Caverhill Lodge Blog

December 22nd, 2008

The 2008 season finished up with glorious weather and great fishing.  The cooling water temperatures had the big fish scrambling for one last juicy meal before the lakes were covered with ice.  Larry and I also enjoyed the last few fancy meals with our guests before the menu took a drastic turn for the worse.  Both the fish and Larry will be looking forward to seeing everyone next year.

After the season ended we pulled boats and winterized cabins and settled in for a slower pace.  The fall colors were amazing on the blueberry and bunchberry plants. The leaves were a deep, rich burgundy that was trimmed with gold in the evening sunshine.  We enjoyed hikes out to the lakes and by October 20th ice had formed a 1”layer on the smaller lakes tucking them in tightly for winter. Bramon held out until mid November.  Caverhill Lake is still open today but the narrows have a thick layer.

Miss Pearl, the hovercraft is going to be put thru her paces in the next few months.  It will be great to have the new measure of safety when we start crossing the lake after it has first frozen.

I will write a note every few weeks but we really hope that you will use this site to share your Caverhill stories and relive your adventures. Share fishing tips, favorite flies and information on favorite lakes.  Recommend books and articles to other lake fisherman.

Up load pictures of good times or comment and rate your vacation experience. 

Ask me for a favorite recipe or send a recipe you think our guests might enjoy.

We hope to make this a friendly information exchange for our regular guests and a window into the Caverhill Lodge experience for new guests.

It will be nice to keep in touch thru out the year.

Sincerely, 

Marlene & Larry
