Various photos of Jones Lawn. There's too few photos to draw any conclusions regarding the green area and lake levels or precip, this is just to have some easily accessible photos of the area.

The green area with aprx elevations.

This photo also shows the "proto-lawn", areas which seem to be the core of the growth over many years.

Thanks Ray76.
Although it is hard to tell from from these thumbnail images alone, it does appear that the green spot was not as green in June 2011, when the lake stayed close to 900’, as it is in May 2017, when the lake is averaging closer to 850’. This appears to indicate that the greening of the green spot is not a direct function of lake level, even in the Spring, before it gets hot enough to potentially kill off the grass. It will be interesting to see how quickly the green spot browns out this year.
