     Victoria Lake sees pretty high levels of rainfall; of all the months in a year March is the one with the most snow; the driest of the months is June. And that's not all the things to do here in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains. Why not camp at Conejos Campground since you're here at Victoria Lake, and do take a look at Laguna Venado, it's a charming lake. If you came for an overnight stay Spectacle Lake Campground is a delightful place to camp, and there are  
   some brilliant whitewater spots on Conejos River.
High temperatures at Victoria Lake during the summertime are in the 60's with overnight lows in the 40's. Highs during the winter are mostly in the 30's while the cold winter nights at Victoria Lake are in the 0's. This lake is so wonderful. Have a perfect hiking adventure along the South Fork Trail, and you'll come across a picturesque lake called Burro Lake. While you're here at Victoria Lake you can take a
 
               hike along the Ruybalid Trail, and if you would like a little side visit, try East Canon Escondido.
Just can't get enough of the San Juan and Jemez Mountains. A good nearby hotel is Allington Inn and Suites. This lake is located in the wonderful San Juan and Jemez Mountains. Man, is there a lot of fun things to do in the neighborhood of Victoria Lake. Take a hike on the Elk Creek Trail; if you need a place to stay Branding Iron Motel is a great choice.

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. ...

Trujillo Meadows Campground
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....

Opal Lake

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!...
