Tioga Lake Lane is short, maybe three miles. It leaves Route 15 and runs parallel to the Mansfield Hike and Bike Trail all the way to the boat launch where the Tioga River becomes Tioga Reservoir. The end of this road seems to go right into the river, where the concrete ramp disappears underwater. I’m often there because it is a short outing from my home and has many photo opportunities. There are plenty of trees and fresh air, and, on this day, also perfect clouds that coaxed me to aim, shoot, and capture.
