Spelling error---this is Stormy Lake

Tried looking them up on my PC at work a few days ago and now they seem to be showing up. Maybe just a bug in the code. My goal is get in to Otter and Edna this summer. JD

Hi, just a spelling correction - "Neknoberts" was corrected in 1999 by the US Board on Geographic Names to "Nekbobets". The old spelling still appears on most maps. The 2003 Mount Hood Nat'l Forest map has the correct spelling. According to "Oregon Geographic Names', 7th ed, Lewis McArthur, the lake was named by a fish planting crew. The crew chief reversed the first three letters of his sons' names - thus Ken, Bob, Steve became Nekbobets. I'm a cartographer with the Forest Service, and have to/get to keep up with this stuff! Anyway, beautiful area and nice photo.
