I was raised near this lake and when a child we had to pack horses into this lake. It is not near any campgrounds, and it's over 25 miles to town, not 18. It gets way colder than 0 in the winter but the views are almost correct.  It IS beautiful!...

I am a very close relative of the land owners for a significant portion of the East Fork. There is a couple of miles of river that is private land.

Please respect the property line and stay on public lands. Other than that enjoy your time in CO and happy rafting....
