Loon Lake, the Incomparable.

So very pleasant.

Bob and Susan Wind Simpson spent two weeks visiting Loon Lake, Clayton and Deer Park. Here they stand at the door step of the Clayton School.

Tracks back into family history?

Seeing double.

The Common Loon. If you desire hearing the lonesome wails of a Loon, do this. Enter, " Silver Beach Homeowners." Click on, "Information." Click on, "Loon Lake Association," third from bottom of list. Click on, "What is a Loon?" At the bottom of that page you have a selection of four different loon calls. It's a terrific Website.

One of the many moods of the Blue Diamond called Loon Lake.

A rare sight of the front of the Morgan Estate. There are only two buildings remain. This one and the one below left.

Just like coming home. Susan spent many vacations at this very same place visiting her Grandparent's summer cabin beginning when she was just a toddler.

The Dinner Bell in Loon Lake serves a terrific special of steak and eggs any time of the day.

The irresistible.

Susan captivated the group with her computer skills and an album of the life Wind-Cowan-Olds family. The story in pictures is a sight to behold. We are hoping for a return trip by Bob and her very, very soon.

A cozy inovative beach house.

A room with a view.

The lower level of the Loon Lake Historical Society building is their social center. It's comprised of a combined dining hall with an elaborate kitchen, meeting hall and dance pavillian.

Mural in the basement of the Old School House, painted by Gail Daehlin.

This mural painted by Gail Daehlin shows scenes from both Deer and Loon Lakes. The upper left shows the entrance to Morgan Park. The bottom left shows the steam boat Gwen. The Gwen was a tour boat that was based at Morgan Park. The center upper right shows the Loon Lake Depot of the Spokane Falls and Northern Railroad. The upper right shows Edgett's Resort on Deer Lake. It was located in what is now the Pinelow area. The lower right shows the view from Sunrise Point looking at the Narrows on Deer Lake. The mural also shows the elevation of Loon Lake as 2381 feet. Deer Lake is 2479 feet above sea level. All the scenes were painted from pictures the LLHS has collected over the years. This mural is certainly a great addition to the Old School!

The Dinner Bell and the Clayton Drive In head the list of great food from Deer Park to Springdale.

At 7.15 AM New Years day 2008 on a beautiful farm located between Clayton and Loon Lake, Bill Sebright took this extraordinary photo.

Arcadia Photos with the following discription. This shows the beginning of the water project. Notice the Railroad still located at the same location. Three miles of flume connected Deer and Loon Lake with an addtional 5 miles connecting Deer and Grouse Creek to ensure usage from all three scources. Eight miles of flume along Dragoon Creek supplied water to between 4000 and 5000 acres.

This inscription reads as follows. Notice the elevated Flume in the background.
