Dry warm beds await you at Tamarron Resort.
This lake is so wonderful. In case you don’t mind getting dripping wet, you can always go whitewater paddling on Animas River; if you wish for a little side trip, try Nary Draw. So
many exciting things in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains, just tremendous. Whitewater paddling is brilliant on Canyon Creek, and why not a little side journey to Elbert Creek. At Electra Lake through the months of summer highs are
in the 70's while night lows are usually in the 30's. Through the winter highs are in the 30's with winter lows in the 0's overnight here at Electra Lake.
Life's too short to enjoy all the exciting stuff in the San Juan and Jemez
Mountains. Gotta ski! Silverton is a perfect spot to do that; there are plenty of people from Durango here. This lake is so wonderful. After a long day outdoors Lodge at Tamarron is a good place to spend a night or two, and what would winter be without some skiing at Kendall Mountain.
