   Campground is a wonderful local campground, and at Borns Lake you can observe Sheep Mountain.
Hiking along the Rainbow Trail is magnificent fun, and a tremendous spot like Poison Park here at Borns Lake is too great to miss. This lake is so wonderful. Take a hike on the Windy Pass Trail; whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend San Juan River - East Fork. Having a pleasant time in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains is simple.
 
               Borns Lake is a brilliant place to visit for more than one day, Pagosa Riverside Campground is a brilliant place to camp nearby, and after a long day outdoors Holiday Inn Express Pagosa Springs, Co is a delightful location to spend a night or two.
Borns Lake gets very little precipitation; July is the month that gets the most rain, and the driest month of the year is June. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a spot to stay Oak Ridge Lodge is a pleasant choice, and if you come at the right time of year, Wolf Creek offers some nice whitewater. But wait, there's more enjoyable stuff to do in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains. There's some flowing water close by, Beaver Creek is a stream you can pop by while you're here, as expected you could also have a look at Rod and Gun Club Lake if you're here; it's not far at all.
Borns Lake is not the only spot nearby, Hatcher Lakes is a nearby lake, and wonderful scenery and pleasant skiing is what you obtain at Wolf Creek.

San Juan River - East Fork
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....

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!...
