Hello .. I am going up to the TTF mid July ... I will be staying near Lake of Falls area but on the TTF and I was wondering if access to Trude Lake and Merkle Lake area is present . It has been a few years .. but access to Trude Lake used to be by a Culvert Pipe ( I went about half way in .. I remember that the pipe points downward towards Trude Lake .. I got stuck !! ) . ANd I believe the bridge to Merkle lake was rebuilt . Thanks .. and good luck fishing .
