     Gilpin Lake is located in the Park Range. This lake is so wonderful. A gorgeous lake like Gold Creek Lake right next door to Gilpin Lake is a tremendous place to go to; of course Mica Creek flows through this region. This lake is so wonderful. Whitewater paddling is brilliant on Encampment River. There's so much to do here at Gilpin Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Beaver Creek Campground is a delightful location for that.
Gotta ski! Steamboat
 
   is a delightful site to do that. You'll come across a stunning lake called Bighorn Lake near Gilpin Lake, and do take a hike on the Mica Basin Trail. And that's not all you can do here at Gilpin Lake. Gilpin Lake is delightful enough to spend more than a day at, Helena Campground is a delightful local campground, and in case you don’t have a problem getting soaked, you can always go whitewater paddling on Elk River.
And that's not all the things you can do
