     Yeah, come here to Twin Lake for a brilliant time. Get your heart beating on the good whitewater of Cache La Poudre River; Dowdy Lake - Arapaho National Forest is a magnificent local campground. This lake is so wonderful. A fine close by hotel is Fawn Valley Inn. Man, is there a heap of exciting stuff to do in the Medicine Bow Mountains. Go for a hike on the Swamp Creek Cutoff Trail, and probably you're looking for close by lakes? Sure, Dowdy Lake is just

This lake is so wonderful. There's perfect hiking along the Kreutzer Nature Trail; as expected, this is a fine area for folks who like lakes, West Lake is a lake nearby. Not much precipitation falls here at Twin Lake; of all the months in a year July is the one with the most rain, and December on the other hand is the driest.

               Lake Campground is a delightful campground nearby.
This lake is located in the wonderful Medicine Bow Mountains. So many fun things to do here in the Medicine Bow Mountains, too magnificent to be true. Wildcat Canyon is in the vicinity of Twin Lake and is undeniably a tremendous spot to visit, and if you're interested in hydro structures, you can explore Twin Lakes Dam. Summer brings highs in the 70's to Twin Lake while overnight lows are ordinarily in the 40's. All through the winter highs are in the 30's, and during the dark hours in the wintertime at Twin Lake temperatures descend to the 0's.
Don't leave Twin Lake without first going for a hike along the North Lone Pine Trail, and if you're a golfer then a brilliant nearby course is Fox Acres Country Club.

The lake was very low on 6/29/08. Not sure when they let all the water out but if it was before this last winter we had... I bet it froze solid. We both fished for a while and did not see and sign of life while we were there....

Worster Reservoir

Marlene. I spent several years in Laramie in the 70's and also never was aquainted with Worster Reservoir... However my interest in families was sparked when I heard the name Appleton Collins Worster who is in my family tree. ...It's named after my grandfather Appleton Collins Worster, he came here from Maine when he was young. My father and uncles grew up in the house that is on Sand Creek road, not far from reservoir....I have never heard of Worster Reservoir, please let me know where it is located....

Greyrock Trail
19 miles away
I hiked Grey Rock on July 3rd and contracted poison ivy. Great hike, but beware and buy some Zanfel first!...Another great story describing the wounders of the Rocky Mountains. As a life serious rock climber I truly respect the story of a beautiful hike. Thank you, enjoy many more family adventures. Don't rush up the mountains and be thankful for the lush mountains we call the Rocky Mountains....I climb to the Grey Rock Summit every summer. We went this 4th of July weekend. We left the parking lot late afternoon and got to the summit with enough time to hike the boulders to the top after putting up the tent. The 4 of us watched the sunset. I had a headlamp, but didn't need it. There was an almost full moon lighting up the canyon. My daughter & I slept in the parachute hammocks and watched the moon cross the sky. I enjoyed a good sunrise too. The trail leading to the lake was marked with rock piles that even I found it! I walked in up to my knees and soaked my bathing suit in the clear water. The others walked across the lake and climbed the rocks to the top on the West side. So refreshing. Nice family holiday. We were also celebrating my daughters 19th birthday....

Ypsilon Lake
19 miles away
It's true. This lake is incredible for fishing probably because it is little fished. Beetle Spins not so good for us but Rooster Tails and Yo-Zuri Pin's minnow 2'' Rainbow Trout colored did the trick. Four of us went here July '09. The hike was long but worth it. Accompanied by a late morning start, it rained off and on so we didn't get to fish as much as we wanted plus the altitude got to one of us pretty badly. We're lowlanders from the South. A couple of extra-strength Tylenol, he was up and around in an hour or so. Next time we'll camp at Upper Chipmunk and each eat our fill of Trout each day. Awesome adventure!...
