This lake is so wonderful. Carter Lake is a wonderful location to visit for more than one day, Comanche Campground is a wonderful location to camp nearby. Carter Lake is frequently a pretty dried up site; the month with most of the snow is December, and June is the month with the least moisture. This is a tremendous region for folks who like lakes. Mill Lake is a lake close at hand; there's great hiking along the Gunsight Trail.
Be careful coming to the Sawatch Range, you might not ever wanna return back home again. Quartz Dome is clearly visible from Carter Lake, and what would winter be without some skiing at Monarch.
