    Many people like to go to Dry Lake. All year is a wonderful time in the Sawatch Range if you adore the outdoors. Dry Lake Gulch is a delightful site to have a look at close by, and lakes are such calm sites, why not have a look at Lake O'Haver. This lake is so wonderful. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Simmons Peak Trail, and hiking is a popular thing to do around Dry Lake; Sheep Mountain Trail is a great local trail. Dry Lake is a beautiful lake in  
   the Sawatch Range.
This lake is so wonderful. Dry warm beds await you at Aspen Leaf Lodge, and you can run the rapids of Arkansas River. It's a fine idea to take a look at Droz Creek, it's in the neighborhood of Dry Lake; you can stay the night at O Haver Lake Campground. There are other places here than Dry Lake, for example O'Haver Lake, and O Haver Lake Dam is a stunning site, undeniably worth going to.
You just can't imagine the amount of outdoors
 
               entertaining stuff the area next to Dry Lake has to offer. Really great skiing awaits you at Monarch, and after a long day outdoors Holiday Inn Express Salida, Co is a wonderful place to spend a night or two. Through the warm days of summer highs here at Dry Lake get into the 80's; the night is quite cooler of course, mostly in the 40's. The cold days of the winter come with highs in the 30's while Dry Lake overnight low temperatures during the winter are in the 0's.
So much cool stuff to do here in the Sawatch Range, too tremendous to be true. The Round Hill Trail offers hiking at its best. You'll need more than a day to discover everything Dry Lake has to offer, you can camp at Monarch Spur RV Park. Dry Lake is pretty waterless typically; the month of August is the wettest with most of the rain; January on the other hand is the driest.
