Vermilion Valley Hydroelectric Project

We went up to Lake Thomas A Edison and the Vermilion Valley Hydroelectric Project run by Southern California Edison.  I’ve never been here before.  The Vermilion Valley was flooded out by the dam when it was completed.

The resort at one end of the lake runs a boat during the summer to the other end of the lake for hikers.  It cuts off about a half day of hiking to get up to the Pacific Crest Trail.

Looking back toward the Kaiser Peaks Wilderness area and the way we came from.
