Boss Lake - Located minutes to the south of Tahla is Boss Lake. Lying at an elevation of 1052 m. (3451 ft.), Boss has a surface area of 22 ha. (54 ac.). Stocked with 4000 Blackwater Rainbows in 1994, this is another lake that supports an excellent Rainbow fishery managed to provide fishermen with moderate catch rates for large trout. A 9 vehicle semi-open BCFS campsite with cartop boat launching can be found at the lake.
