Running from Lightning at Medicine Lake

Early out day at school so I took the boys to Medicine Lake (pond) a small little drop of water up at La Sal Pass that has an amazing amount of big fish for how small it is. South Mountain is in the background, the least visited part of the La Sals. We have spent a lot of time up there this summer trying to maintain our old trail system that has not seen maintainence for 15+ years. We did not get to fish long as a major monsoon thunderstorm moved in and started throwing lightning at the high peaks. Ridge is not real fond of lightning so we headed home.( I am afraid we scarred him for life in the San Juan thunderstorm a few years back).
