Location description
In a point of land with a lighthouse (tourist attraction), there is a man-made boat with boat launch ramp and a few docks. The readings were taken from one of the docks. There was a strong SW wind, and the lake had whitecaps, but water was relatively still in the harbor. There were the usual lake seagulls in the area, with a few people visiting the lighthouse.
