This lake is so wonderful. A good nearby hotel is Inn at Lost Creek, and Schmidt Spring is always fun to check out. You're probably interested in lakes, Natural Pond is one of those nearby, and if you need a place to stay Mountain Lodge at Telluride is a delightful choice. And if that's not sufficient there's a load more cool things to do in the Uncompahgre Plateau Mountains. A tour to Beach Canyon is always fun, and you can run the rapids of Uncompahgre River.

| | If only every place had this much outdoors enjoyable stuff, what a great globe it would be. The peak of Spruce Mountain can be spotted from Spring Pond, and there's whitewater on San Miguel River for all you adrenaline kick people. Just can't get enough of the Uncompahgre Plateau Mountains. Bears Den is a good place to stretch your legs a bit, and as expected, this is a great neighborhood for people who like lakes, West Pond is a lake in the vicinity. This lake | |

is so wonderful. You'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Telluride while you're here, and don't leave Spring Pond without first going for a hike along the Blue Lakes Trail. And if that's not enough, there's a lot
more to do in the vicinity of Spring Pond. Camping at Country Village RV Ranch Park is always a magnificent experience. This lake is one of the great places here in the Uncompahgre Plateau Mountains. If you came to camp Centennial
RV Park is a great spot to do that, and going for a hike on the Dallas Trail is always a tremendous adventure. Throughout the warmest time of the year, highs ordinarily are in the 90's at Spring Pond, and throughout the night
it cools down to the 50's. Highs through the wintertime are commonly in the 30's with temperatures at Spring Pond dipping down into the 10's during winter nights. Spring Pond gets very little rainfall; the month with most of the rain
is July, and June meanwhile is the driest month. You can never get enough of the great skiing at Silverton, and there are good sites to explore along the Alder Creek Trail.

Blue Lakes Trail
 | This description has a few accurate things in it, but the way it's put together, it makes no sense, even to someone who lives here. It jumbles things from Telluride to Silverton in with Blue Lakes Trail. It is indeed beautiful. And you could hike up Sneffels (local 14'er) from this side, if you are fit and up for a very, very long adventure. ... |
