     Colorado has many beautiful lakes and Beaver Lake is one of them. High temperatures at Beaver Lake all through the warm days of summer are in the 60's; the nighttime is a bit cooler of course, regularly in the 40's. For the period of the winter the highs are generally in the 30's; after the sun is down through the winter temperatures at Beaver Lake drop into the 0's. You think that's sufficient? Just getting warmed up. Paddling on Rio de los Pinos is so much  
   fun, and if you need a place to stay Branding Iron Motel is a glorious choice. So many amusing things to do in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains, not enough time. Going for a hike along the Conejos Stock Driveway will let you absorb the natural beauty of this vicinity, and if you came to camp Conejos Campground is a delightful site to do that.
Whitewater paddling is wonderful on Conejos River. There's so much to do here at Beaver Lake that you need to camp
 
               here for a while, Spectacle Lake Campground is a nice place for that. This lake is so wonderful. On a great day at Beaver Lake you can take a hike along the Posos Trail, and a beautiful lake like Dry Lake is a tremendous place to stop at. Lots of rain falls at Beaver Lake; March is the wettest month with most snow; June on the other hand is the driest.
The San Juan and Jemez Mountains scenery is always beautiful. While you're here at Beaver Lake you can take a hike along the Notch Trail; La Grulla Lake is a delightful lake close by. There's no way someone can get bored here in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains.

Spruce Hole Trail
While I have not had the pleasure of hiking any of its trails yet, I look forward to camping in this area. I ''scouted'' the dirt road into the Spruce Hole exit off of the main road. It is very lovely through this piece of wilderness. Lots of healthy pines, wildflowers, and plenty of wildlife too. Sorry I don't have any pictures, but if you're thinking about camping or hiking here... I highly suggest that you do!...

Ruybalid Trail
Rough Creek Falls is well worth the trip; near Ruybalid Trail....

Gorgeous trail...

Bear Lake Trail
Bear Lake was surely a disappointment! I'd heard it had good fishing, but after puffing up a long, steep, and confusing trail (we lost our way more than once, delaying our arrival about an hour) we found the lake nearly dry; muddy, and infested with mosquitoes! Next time I'll save myself the bother and fish the Conejos. ...

Trujillo Meadows Campground
In the 16 years that I have lived in the area, there has never been white water ( for rafting, canoeing, kayaking etc. I presume) in the Brazos. I think you are referring to the Chama River which starts in the Colorado San Juans and flows through New Mexico into the Rio Grande in Espanola ,NM. Plenty of white water there in the spring time....You seem to have missed letting people know about the great trout fishing at Trujillo Meadows. I have never been there that I haven't hooked a big one....
