Two months makes a big difference...Heron Marina in spring

On April 24, the Heron Lake Marina had only just opened for the season and few boats were in evidence. With an elevation well over 7100 feet, Heron's sailing is strictly seasonal. Shown above are A and B docks of the marina, with The Narrows in the background leading to the main body of the lake.
