     Burro Lake is one of the lakes here in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains. Burro Lake gets much water; the month with most of the snow is March, and the driest month is June. Having a brilliant time in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains is easy. Go for a hike on the Elk Creek Trail, and there are some good whitewater spots on Conejos River.
This lake is so wonderful. Good hiking is available along the South Fork Trail, and close by East Canon Escondido is a good
 
   place to go. If only every place had this much outdoors exciting things, what a great planet it would be. Looking for something in the neighborhood of Burro Lake? Alverjones Lake is close by; The Spruce Lodge is a brilliant site to get some rest.
Summertime highs at Burro Lake typically tend to be in the 60's. Once the sun is down it drops down to the 40's. High temperatures during the wintertime are normally in the 30's while the cold winter nights at Burro
 
               Lake are in the 0's. Burro Lake is glorious enough to spend more than a day at, Conejos Campground is a glorious local campground; whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Rio de los Pinos. You just can't picture the amount of outdoors cool things the San Juan and Jemez Mountains has to offer. Don't leave Burro Lake without first going for a hike along the Ruybalid Trail; camping at Spectacle Lake Campground is always a fine experience.
This lake is so wonderful. You're perhaps interested in lakes, Hourglass Lake is one of those close by, and if you need a spot to stay Branding Iron Motel is a nice choice.

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

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!...
