There haven't been any recent reports, but the ice should be deteriorating. The lake will be stocked with fish in late June when the roads open up. Last September, Spirit, Tamarak, Jessen and several other small lakes and their connecting streams were treated. All fish species were removed as part of a Colorado River cutthroat trout restoration project. A few fish were stocked in late fall, and more Colorado River cutts and tiger trout will be planted this spring. This treatment is a critical part of a management strategy to keep Colorado River cutthroat trout off the endangered species list.
