While in Moab, we were looking for a nice drive and the Manti La Sa Mountains with their beautiful Snow covered tips called to us. As we drove this scenic drive from Moab into the Manti-La-Sal National Forest, we came upon signs for a Lake. Now we LOVE lakes, but a lake named OOHWAH is just too cool to ever think of passing up. We got to the lake, and Todd was thrilled to do some fishing. He fished for one hour and caught 13 beautiful trout. Great detour. Great find.

Look...I Found Todd.
