   is a good location to camp, and a lake nearby is Crescent Lake.
You believe that's enough? Just getting warmed up. Whitewater paddling is great on San Juan River - East Fork, and you can go for a hike on the Leche Creek Trail. Why not camp at Blanco River Campground while you're here at Slesinger Reservoir, and there are great places to discover along the V Rock Trail. This lake is one of the great places here in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains.

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!...

San Juan River - East Fork
11 miles away
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. Using the river or the land without authorization is tresspassing and is illegal. I am by no means giving you permission to use it. I am simply stating the facts. Please respect the property line and stay on public lands. Other than that enjoy your time in CO and happy rafting....
