Blue Lake is a great lake in an area with lots of outdoors fun all around. This lake is so wonderful. Any time is a wonderful time at Blue Lake if you fancy the outdoors. There are some great whitewater spots on Conejos River, and since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always have a look at close by Laguna Ruybal. Dry warm beds await you at Allington Inn and Suites, and going for a hike on the Continental Divide Trail is always a magnificent adventure.

Through the wintertime the highs are mostly in the 30's while the cold winter nights at Blue Lake are in the 0's. Blue Lake gets a large amount of water; most of the snow falls during March, and June on the other hand is the driest. This lake is so wonderful. Mix Lake Campground is a great campground | |

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. ... |
Opal Lake
 | I was raised near this lake and when a child we had to pack horses into this lake. It is not near any campgrounds, and it's over 25 miles to town, not 18. It gets way colder than 0 in the winter but the views are almost correct. It IS beautiful!... |
Trujillo Meadows Campground
 | 16 miles away 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.... |

San Juan River - East Fork
 | 19 miles away I am a very close relative of the land owners for a significant portion of the East Fork. There is a couple of miles of river that is private land. Using the river or the land without authorization is tresspassing and is illegal. I am by no means giving you permission to use it. I am simply stating the facts. Please respect the property line and stay on public lands. Other than that enjoy your time in CO and happy rafting.... |
