User input for Jet Lake, Garfield County, Colorado:
julie: Jet lake is also located in the Flat Tops wilderness area so no vehicles allowed but is only about a 15 to 20 minute hike to the lake (an easy pretty flat hike) then about another 15 minute hike into shadow lake , about 15 mor into blair lake and about 15 more into crater lake. Elk lakes are located about 5 minutes from the wilderness area only 1/2 mile to the parking for jet lakes.

| | and get yourself into a kayak and hit Colorado River. This lake is so wonderful. Clarion Collection Glenwood Springs is a good place to get some rest, and there are nice places to look at along the Fayville Trail. And that's not all you can do here at Jet Lake. If you need a site to stay Quality Inn & Suites is a pleasant choice; Jet Lake is fine enough to spend more than a day at, Bison Lake Campground is a fine local campground.

Campground is always a wonderful experience, and going for a hike on the Oyster Lake Trail is always a good adventure. At Jet Lake you can distinguish Blair Mountain, and don't leave Jet Lake without first going for a hike along
the Last Chance Trail. Blair Lake is a nearby lake that you could go to, and Sunlight Mountain is a delightful local ski area. This lake is so wonderful.
