If you really want to get up close and personal, a visit to the Mach Loop training area for low level flights in the UK should be on everyone's bucket list. There is another area in Death Valley but I do not know how accessible it is.
We didn't get up as far as Winifred Lake that often but during the exercises it wasn't unusual to "ingress" to the range from the north... but your story reminds me scaring away an ice fisherman on Spencer Lake (in the range) a verrrry long time ago.
