Nichols Reservoir is a great lake in an area with lots of outdoors fun all around. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy the Front Range. After a long day outdoors The Cliff House Hotel at Pikes Peak is a magnificent place to spend a night or two; pleasant hiking is available along the Waldo Canyon Trail. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy this place. Nichols Reservoir is not the only location close by, Northfield Reservoir is a close by lake; going for a hike

could also stop at Rampart Reservoir while you're here at Nichols Reservoir; it's close by; at Nichols Reservoir you always meet someone from Colorado Springs. This lake is so wonderful. A tour to Florissant Fossil Beds National
Monument is worthwhile; Nichols Dam is beautiful. But wait, there's more exciting stuff to do in the Front Range. A good spot to go to in the neighborhood of Nichols Reservoir is Wildcat Gulch, and camping is available at Lone Duck
Campground. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a place to stay Eagle Motel is a good choice; camping at Promontory Campground is always a perfect experience. You get a good sight of Devils Kitchen from Nichols Reservoir; you can go for a hike on the Stanley Canyon Trail. This lake is one of the great places here in the Front Range.

Stanley Canyon Trail
 | 9/7/2007 Hiked the Stanley Canyon trail with a friend and enjoyed the trail very much up to the reservoir. About half way up there is a ''V'' in the trail and you need to stay to the left or straight ahead. The trail leading up and to the right ends in scree and downed trees. It's a moderately strenuous trail up to the reservoir; but well worth it. Afterwards, we hiked up and past the reservoir and wanted to loop around and hit the lower Stanley trail but were unable to find the trailhead for it. We ended up blazing new ground and coming down Eagle Peak trail much to our surprise.... |

North Catamount Reservoir
 | For a nice hike/mountain bike ride, this lake has a complete loop around it. About half of it is single track that weaves gradually in and out of coves on the North side of the lake. The south side has a couple good climbs. The rest of the ride is on the roads (Ridge Trail), which offers some nice views of the Peak and glimpses of South Catamount. The best access, in my opinion, is from the Catamount entrance at the end of Edlow Road (Past Woodland Park about 3 miles).... |
Monument Lake
 | nice lake, easy to get to. Fits a couple of canoes. Some marshy area where people train their dogs. Fishing in 2007 was expected to be not the best due to the drought in 2004. We went twice in 2007, kids had a couple of bites, could see some people catching some smaller fish. Good lake for the ''I only have a few hours before the kids games'' kinda place.... |
