Here is the order: Sand Pond roughly 1.7 miles, Dead Lake roughly 2.9 miles to the south, Grandwood Lake roughly 9.0 miles then Valley Lake roughly 10 miles to the south-west. On Dead Lake the margins hold more than the middle, so start tight and stay tight. Whether a lid forms depends on the year. A mild week can undo a month of cold. Almost all of it is lake rather than river. The lee shore collects food when it blows. Sand Pond sits nearest and covers some 19 acres. Sand Pond is the easiest to reach with a car. On climate averages, local water clears around late March. County records name bluegill, common carp, green sunfish and pumpkinseed among the fish present.
