Fallen Leaf Lake, once called Dead Lake, is a lake near Camas, Washington. Once home to Dead Lake Cemetery, it and the area surrounding are now fenced off to the public. This property had been owned by the local Camas paper mill for decades. Currently, the mill is owned by the Georgia-Pacific Corporation.
The lake has been the source of rumor and intrigue for generations, concerning its depth, history and contents. One of the more interesting rumors are that the depth has never been accurately measured due to instrument limitations. Another is that the lake contains the remains of drowning victims which have never been found. Fallen Leaf Lake is made available for group gatherings on a first-come first-served reservation basis by the Georgia-Pacific paper mill.
