Paradise Lost

We have lived here in Maltby almost 15 years now, with our home facing Paradise Lake Road.  Many times, we've traveled this road, looking for its namesake.  We've never been able to locate it,  even on a county map.

On a recent ride back from Duvall, the stark winter landscape gave us a tiny view into our long-lost Paradise Lake!!  It's back from the road quite some distance, and there does not seem to be any public access.

I hiked back along the shoulder-less road to get this initial shot of the lake (the quality is poor, but it's better than nothing!).  It's it lovely?
