This lake is so wonderful. Everybody nearby loves skiing at Beaver Creek. If only every site had this much outdoors fun stuff, what a great world it would be. Fryingpan River has a great whitewater paddling spot
close by, and the skiing at Ski Cooper is great. You'll really wish for more hours in a day to enjoy all the amusing stuff in the Sawatch Range. Hiking along the Mount Massive Trail is perfect fun; you can stay the night at Gold Park
Campground.
That right there is a heap of fun stuff already but it goes on, the Sawatch Range has it all. Looking for something right next door to Bench Lakes? Lyle Lake is nearby, and paddling on Homestake Creek is so much fun.
