Name        Northern Lake Side.~
Descr
Floating on this boiling lake is not what you would consider an enjoyable 
experience.  Many a creature bumps the bottom of your boat, and glares 
at you through unblinking eyes from the waters below.  The southern 
portion of the lake looks calm and serene compared to this wild place.
