Griffith Lake is a nice lake to visit. You truly ought to fancy Griffith Lake. Don't leave Griffith Lake without first going for a hike along the Piney Lake Trail, and Vail is a glorious local ski area. This lake is one of the great places here in the Park Range. So much exciting stuff to do here in the Park Range, too perfect to be true. If you come at the right time of year, Blue River offers some brilliant whitewater, and you can go for a hike on the Surprise

Lake is a location that is reasonably dried out usually; most of the rain falls during August, and February is when it's the driest. This lake is so wonderful. Camping at Willows Campground is always a nice experience, and you'll
discover a wonderful lake called Eaglesmere Lakes. You think that's sufficient? Just getting warmed up. All through the warmest time of the year at Griffith Lake highs are commonly in the 80's, and the night is a tad chillier
of course, regularly in the 40's. The cold days of the winter come with highs in the 20's, and after the sun is down during the wintertime temperatures at Griffith Lake sink into the-10's. This lake is so wonderful. North Fork Elliott
Creek is a fine location to take a look at; if you need a site to stay Evergreen Lodge At Vail is a tremendous choice. All year is a glorious time in the Park Range if you adore the outdoors. Going for a hike on the Eaglesmere Trail is always a magnificent adventure, and get yourself into a kayak and hit Blue River.

Upper Piney Lake
 | We had a great time hiking to Upper Piney Lake over 4th of July weekend, 2006. Although the views are out of this world, the hike will take everything out of you that you've got. I would highly recommend this hike. Make sure you have everything you need for AT LEAST 2 days. The hike to Upper Piney will take 8 hours (all up hill)...But only 4 hours to get back to Piney River Ranch.... |
Gore Range Trail
 | Well, exhilarating or not, you may want to consider parking your tent and self away from trees. The forests in the Gore and elsewhere in Colorado are dying, particularly and immediately the pines. The aspens are dealing plague also, but of a fungi and bacterial nature. Do NOT camp near trees.......but let me tell you I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE SCARED IN MY LIFE! We set up our tents just before dark as the rain was really starting to come down. The forecast predicted a few small isolated showers along the Continental Davide, earlier in the day. Isolated my ass- it rained hard for about 6 or 7 hours!!! It was around 10pm when I was awaken by a VERY unfamiliar loud crackling, popping, and snapping sound. I've never in my life heard anything that closely resembled the sounds I was hearing. The first one that woke me & lasted about 30 seconds, the next came about 5 minutes later and lasted a few seconds longer. This time after the same noises as before ended, there was a horrific crashing sound that shook the area where my tent was pitched. That's when I realized the tree's were falling due to the rain softening the soil around the Tree roots. I thought for sure one of the up-rooted tree's were going to crush me & my tent like a Grape. God must have lent a helping hand because in the morning we counted 17 tree's that fell. One of the 40 foot tree's landed w/ in 20ft of my tent. That w... |
Beaver Creek
 | 14 miles away 5 PHOTOS At the gate you leave the world behind. Nestled at the feet of North America's World Cup mountain, Beaver Creek is a custom-designed resort with the safe, unhurried feel of an Alpine hamlet. From the skating rink in the village square to chocolate-chip cookies served fresh from the oven each afternoon at the lifts, and from the ''Ivy League ski school'' to the world-famous performing arts center, this is perhaps the very best of luxury family skiing. And there is a mountain of prestigious awards for food, wine, and customer service to prove it.... |

Copper Mountain
 | 21 miles away 1 PHOTO ...years, new lifts were added and Copper grew to its current size of 2,465 acres. What was once a sleepy little day ski area is now one of Colorado's premier year-round destination resorts. In 1997, the resort was purchased by Intrawest - a worldwide leader in resort operations and real estate development.
Now the resort consists of not only an incredible mountain, but multiple villages, hundreds of buildings and a million other tangible, moving pieces. Copper is, and always has been, bigger than the tangible. Copper is about people. It’s about spirit. It’s about attitude, passion, heart, guest loyalty and financial strength. It’s about a place that provides a true connection to nature, adventure, the mountain, the community and the mountain lifestyle, void of any pretense. It’s a place, most of all, intent on allowing guests to push their proverbial ‘play button. ’
Copper Mountain is a Colorado ski resort located in Summit County, Colorado, 75 miles west of Denver in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. With 2,465 acres of ski and snowboard terrain Copper is perfect for your Co... |
