About So named when, in 1871, a group of 3 convicts escaped from the Carson City Nevada Prison and holed up in the mountains in the background. A citizen's posse found them there and a shootout ensued.

A member of the Posse, Robert Morrison, was killed and the convicts escaped. Two of the three were later caught and hung while the third, a teenager, was sent back to Carson City.

The mountain on the left is named in honor of Morrison. The creek feeding this lake, now known as Convict Creek, was formerly named Monte Diablo Creek, in honor of my dog.

Incidentally, this same view now appears on a nation-wide television commercial. I forgot what it is advertising, been hoping to see it again but it has to do with a peaceful, relaxing mood. All you see are a reclining woman's legs followed by this view. I didn't have a reclining woman with me, dammit.

What's not cold about a mountain lake in the fall? So it is going in the cool project.

Crystal clear Dave, wonderous and peaceful.
Suggestion for legs....see if you can borrow some from the store that you found you black plastic love in!! They may have a fine selection for you to choose from!
cheers, Beks

Cool indeed! I see some of the leaves are starting to turn over on the right side. You did very well for such a short trip! Bravo!! Perhaps if you had that reclining woman we would not have been treated to such a wonderful photographic show! ;-)
