| | to spot from Beaver Dam Lake; dry warm beds await you at The Westin Riverfront Mountain Villas - Opening May 28, 2009. But wait, there's more fun things to do in the Park Range. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Colorado River; Beaver Dam Lake is not the only spot close by, Walters Lake is a close by lake.
The Park Range scenery is always beautiful. There's whitewater on Blue River for all you adrenaline junkies, | |

and Beaver Dam Lake is tremendous enough to spend more than a day at, Big Green Campground is a tremendous local campground. All the outdoors fun stuff in the Park Range will keep you coming back time and again. You're sure to bump
into some wonderful people from Edwards here.
The best way to spend a winter day is on the slopes of nearby Vail; don't leave Beaver Dam Lake without first paying a visit to Piney Peak Spring. This lake is so wonderful. If you
get bored of Beaver Dam Lake, you could also visit close by Lone Lick Lakes. There's so much to do here at Beaver Dam Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Piney Crossing Campground is a wonderful location for that. Not enough
hours in a day to enjoy the Park Range. Beaver Creek is a very popular ski area around here, and close by you hit upon the Piney Lake Trail which is a great hiking trail.
All the outdoors fun stuff in the vicinity of Beaver Dam
Lake will keep you coming back over and over. You might want to pay a visit to McCord Pass since you're here at Beaver Dam Lake, and the Sheep Drive Trail is a nice hiking trail close by. Some of the water close by flows, like Lone
Lick Creek, and after a long day outdoors Beaver Creek West Condominiums is a magnificent location to spend a night or two. Beaver Dam Lake is a location that is relatively dehydrated mostly; July is when you get the most rain here,
and February is when it's the driest.
This lake is so wonderful. There is a good hiking trail right next door to Beaver Dam Lake called the Rock Creek Trail, and Upper State Park is a good place.

At the gate you leave the world behind. Nestled at the feet of North America's World Cup mountain, Beaver Creek is a custom-designed resort with the safe, unhurried feel of an Alpine hamlet. From the skating rink in the village square to chocolate-chip cookies served fresh from the oven each afternoon at the lifts, and from the ''Ivy League ski school'' to the world-famous performing arts center, this is perhaps the very best of luxury family skiing. And there is a mountain of prestigious awards for food, wine, and customer service to prove it.... |
Upper Piney Lake
 | 14 miles away
We had a great time hiking to Upper Piney Lake over 4th of July weekend, 2006. Although the views are out of this world, the hike will take everything out of you that you've got. I would highly recommend this hike. Make sure you have everything you need for AT LEAST 2 days. The hike to Upper Piney will take 8 hours (all up hill)...But only 4 hours to get back to Piney River Ranch.... |
Gore Range Trail

Well, exhilarating or not, you may want to consider parking your tent and self away from trees. The forests in the Gore and elsewhere in Colorado are dying, particularly and immediately the pines. The aspens are dealing plague also, but of a fungi and bacterial nature. Do NOT camp near trees.......me tell you I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE SCARED IN MY LIFE! We set up our tents just before dark as the rain was really starting to come down. The forecast predicted a few small isolated showers along the Continental Davide, earlier in the day. Isolated my ass- it rained hard for about 6 or 7 hours!!! It was around 10pm when I was awaken by a VERY unfamiliar loud crackling, popping, and snapping sound. I've never in my life heard anything that closely resembled the sounds I was hearing. The first one that woke me & lasted about 30 seconds, the next came about 5 minutes later and lasted a few seconds longer. This time after the same noises as before ended, there was a horrific crashing sound that shook the area where my tent was pitched. That's when I realized the tree's were falling due to the rain softening the soil around the Tree roots. I thought for sure one of the up-rooted tree's were going to crush me & my tent like a Grape. God must have lent a helping hand because in the morning we counted 17 tree's that fell. One of the 40 foot tree's landed w/ in 20ft of my tent. That was the o... |
