About Gray Lake
Gray Lake is known for being a quiet spot. It's a natural lake, meaning it formed on its own over time. The water in Gray Lake eventually flows out through a small, unnamed creek. This creek heads north and connects to another, larger lake called First Lake. This connection is important because it shows how different bodies of water are linked together in a watershed.
