Bodi Lake Update

When I was looking around for land to buy last fall, I had gone up to see some lots at Bodi Lake. If you do any camping in the UP you may have seen this pretty little lake. Unfortunately, the area drought had hit Bodi hard, and there seemed to be very little water left in the lake bed! What had been hundreds of acres of excellent fishing and sandy bottomed swimming, was reduced to two mudholes and lots of newly sprouted grass.

I was really shocked at the changes. While several UP lakes are low and Lake Superior was also at very low levels last fall, it looked like Bodi was drying up.

I plan to try and get up there and check it out this spring. I'll post my update here and let you know how the campground looks. If you have any eastern UP campgrounds you'd like reports on, let me know. I tend to do lots of toodling when I'm home and will be happy to pop over and check them out for you!
