Many people like to go to Maid Lake. Not much precipitation falls here at Maid Lake; the wettest month of the year is generally December, that's the one that snows the most, and June is when it's the driest. So much entertaining stuff to do here in the Sawatch Range, too good to be true. Don't miss out on a trip to Black Canyon Of The Gunnison National Park if you're here at Maid Lake, and a lake nearby is Graphite Lake. For the duration of the days of summer

by, Jackson Lake is a close by lake. Yeah, come here to Maid Lake for a delightful time. Graphite Creek is a wonderful site to take a look at, and Taylor River has a magnificent whitewater paddling spot nearby.
This lake is so
wonderful. After a long day outdoors Best Western Vista Inn is a good location to spend a night or two, and you can have a delightful hiking adventure along the Coyote Park Trail. All year is a magnificent time in the Sawatch Range

...y madness that gridlocks Interstate 70 from Denver to the Front Range resorts each weekend. Located on Highway 50 on the Continental Divide, Monarch is very accessible. It's also one of the oldest ski areas in Colorado, established in 1939.
Monarch Mountain is what you expect from a real Colorado ski area. Abundant natural snow (350+ inches) and friendly people are two of our strongest attributes. You can walk from your car right to the lifts, prices are reasonable, and the runs flow naturally back to the base area. At Monarch you'll lose the crowds but not your friends.
Monarch is a family favorite because of great snow conditions and easy access to the mountain. Having one base area makes it convenient to drop off the little ones in the Children's Center, pick-up rental equipment, sign up for ski school and get on the slopes in a timely manner. Lift lines are a rarity and you will regularly find ski runs to yourself.
Looking for great powder, spectacular views, 1000+ acres of expert terrain, steeps, trees, cliffs, and bowls? You found it with Monarch Mountain. Check out... |

Mosca Campground
 | 19 miles away
We've camped here since our now 40ish childrlen were young. They are now taking their children there. Mosca is beautiful both to the eye and the heart. It is a little more difficult now that there is no potable water, but one can use lake water for dishes, and must bring in drinking and cooking water.Fishing is great - the deer put on a show eve4ry night. The camp hostess, Mary, is there is to help you with problems, and to give great advice.Other than the water problem, this is the greatest camp ground I've ever occupied!... |
