Sightseeing from 30,000 Feet - April 22, 2008 - Part 6 - Kanopolis Lake, Kansas



Okay. Yes. I know the photo is horrible. The camera focused on the specks on the window instead of the distant landscape outside. But the lake is a recognizable shape, and I didn't have any problems finding it in Google Earth.

The lake is between Salina and Ellsworth. On the south end of the lake is Kanopolis Lake State Park, the first state park in Kansas, established in 1955.

Nearby Salina was the site, in 2005, of the takeoff and landing of Steve Fossett's record-breaking solo, non-stop flight around the world.
