We were visiting family in Mitchell and it was hot. I took a little time to sneak away and try my stand up paddle board in Lake Mitchell.
It is no secret that the lake has a bit of an algae problem. In the video above at 1:11 you can see the color of the water as I fall in. It is still a great way to cool off on a hot day, but not for people who can’t handle getting a little green.
I plan to continue to try the Black Hills lakes with my SUP. I’ve already been on Roubaix a couple of times, next on my list is Deerfield Lake.
