A Little Something About Lake Arrowhead

   An enchanted place, by the name of Lake Arrowhead is where a 14 year old girl spent her spring break with her friends and family. In case you didn't know yet, that 14 year old girl is me! This spring break I was even more curious about the existence of this lake, so I decided to do some research and share it with you!
   Lake Arrowhead was not always know as Lake Arrowhead. In the very beginning, a fur trader by the name of Jedediah Smith was the first white man to step on Little Bear Valley. He is the reason that Little Bear Valley( Lake Arrowhead) is populated. What I was VERY surprised to find out was that Lake Arrowhead is an artificial lake! It's purpose was to irrigate water to the San Bernardino Valley. However, because of the limited amount of supplies, the construction for this dam turned into a resort where people like me, escape to this part of Southern California to relax and take in the nature around them.
