We used to "X" out the runway during winter (rainy season) at Frazier
Lake. This did not stop some boneheads from attempting to use the sod,
however. I can remember a number of times that some nonmember left
furrows in the runway. I don't recall, however, very many noseovers,
however.

I always used to wonder if anyone ever landed in the seaplane "ditch"
there by mistake... under certain conditions it certainly looked like a
runway :-).

When I was there we had a pool going as to when somebody would try that!
On a grey day, the seaplane lane looked like a wet concrete runway --
except for the ducks that lived there!
