Exploring the Forgotten Road: Gill Cove & Old CA 190 | Lake Success

Описание: Step back in time with me as we explore the rugged beauty of Gill Cove at Lake Success. In today’s adventure, we are trekking the Old CA 190 trail—a stretch of California history that was bypassed and partially submerged decades ago.
​This landscape is a stunning mix of high-country ranching and lakeside wilderness. We’ll wander beneath a canopy of massive ancient Oaks and Sycamores before heading down to the water’s edge to see the eerie, beautiful submerged Willow trees that provide a unique habitat for the lake’s fish and birdlife.
​In this video, we’ll see:
​The Wildlife: From the majestic American White Pelicans to the various waterfowl that call the Gill Cove Unit home.
​The Working Land: A rare look at local ranchers grazing their sheep along the hillsides, guided by the incredible skill of their shepherd dogs.
​The History: Walking the old asphalt of Highway 190 as it disappears into the depths of the lake.
​Whether you are a local history buff, a birdwatcher, or just love the quiet beauty of the Sierra foothills, this trail has something special to offer.
