    It's always fun to stop by Trail Lake. The high level of rain makes Trail Lake a pretty wet location; the month with most of the snow is March while June is ordinarily the driest month. Do visit Chama Lake near Trail Lake, it's a pretty lake, and there is a magnificent hiking trail nearby called the South Fork Trail. Trail Lake is located in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains.
If you came for an overnight stay El Vado Lake Camping Resort is a pleasant location
 
   to camp, and a charming lake like Green Lake is a great place to stop at. Summertime highs at Trail Lake usually tend to be in the 60's. All through the moonlight hours it's ordinarily in the 40's. Throughout the wintertime the highs are commonly in the 30's, and all through the dark hours in the winter at Trail Lake temperatures sink to the 0's.

If you go for the outdoors you'll go for it here in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains. Going for a hike on the Elk Creek Trail is always a good adventure. If you want a great time in the great outdoors, just come on down to Trail Lake. Conejos Campground is a glorious campground nearby, and there's whitewater on Rio Chama for all you adrenaline junkies. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a spot to stay Allington Inn and Suites is a good choice, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Conejos River.

Ruybalid Trail
Rough Creek Falls is well worth the trip; near Ruybalid Trail....

Bear Lake Trail
Bear Lake was surely a disappointment! I'd heard it had good fishing, but after puffing up a long, steep, and confusing trail (we lost our way more than once, delaying our arrival about an hour) we found the lake nearly dry; muddy, and infested with mosquitoes! Next time I'll save myself the bother and fish the Conejos. ...

Opal Lake
11 miles away
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!...

Trujillo Meadows Campground
11 miles away
In the 16 years that I have lived in the area, there has never been white water ( for rafting, canoeing, kayaking etc. I presume) in the Brazos. I think you are referring to the Chama River which starts in the Colorado San Juans and flows through New Mexico into the Rio Grande in Espanola ,NM. Plenty of white water there in the spring time....You seem to have missed letting people know about the great trout fishing at Trujillo Meadows. I have never been there that I haven't hooked a big one....

Spruce Hole Trail
15 miles away
While I have not had the pleasure of hiking any of its trails yet, I look forward to camping in this area. I ''scouted'' the dirt road into the Spruce Hole exit off of the main road. It is very lovely through this piece of wilderness. Lots of healthy pines, wildflowers, and plenty of wildlife too. Sorry I don't have any pictures, but if you're thinking about camping or hiking here... I highly suggest that you do!...
