     Throughout the warm days of summer here at Woods Lake, high temperatures mostly reach the 80's; the nighttime is a bit cooler of course, frequently in the 40's. For the duration of the wintertime highs are generally in the 30's, and nighttime lows at Woods Lake during the wintertime commonly sink into the 0's. And that's not all you can do here in the Sawatch Range. Why not camp at Fulford Cave Campground if you're here at Woods Lake, and Arrowhead Village  
   is a tremendous location to get some rest. This lake is so wonderful. You can run the rapids of Eagle River close to Woods Lake; if you need a site to stay The Lodge and Spa at Cordillera is a tremendous choice.
This lake is so wonderful. Go for a hike on the Lake Charles Trail, and of course, this is a nice region for folks who like lakes, Alicia Lake Reservoir is a lake close at hand. At Woods Lake you don’t see much precipitation; during July this area
 
               sees the most rain, and February is when it's the driest. Good hiking is available along the Ironedge Trail, and a perfect site like Lime Park here at Woods Lake is too perfect to miss.
You just can't imagine the amount of outdoors cool stuff the area next to Woods Lake has to offer. Get your heart beating on the delightful whitewater of Fryingpan River, and almost certainly you're looking for nearby lakes? Sure, Crooked Creek Reservoir is just a very short distance away. This lake is located in the wonderful Sawatch Range. Just can't get enough of the Sawatch Range. If you came for an overnight stay Elk Wallow Campground is a nice place to camp, and Crooked Creek Dam is not far at all from Woods Lake.
Aspen Highlands is a very popular ski area in close proximity; there are plenty of people from Edwards here at Woods Lake. And if that's not enough there's lots more cool stuff to do in the Sawatch Range. And that's not all you can do here at Woods Lake. Beaver Creek has good slopes and a friendly staff, and if you're looking for some flowing water? Try Crooked Creek.
Don't leave Woods Lake without first going for a hike along the Last Chance Trail; if you wish for a little side tour, try Corral Gulch.

Long very steep hike tried to make hike to the lake in one day and this is not probable. We are planning on a four day hike in and out with time to fish!...

LEDE Reservoir
10 miles away
What happened to the water as of 10-20-9?  We drove up to catch a couple trout only to find the lake has been drained? ...Beautiful drive up to Lede Reservoir.  We started in Eagle and took Sylvan Lake road all the way past the lake and then took a right at the first intersection.  After climbing up and around the peak in front of us we were upon some huge rolling meadows that were among the forrests.  A slight drop down into the valley on the west side of the mountains and a left turn lead us to the reservoir.  It is a great spot with some fishing paths around the water and a number of campsites as well.  We continued west to Gypsum Creek Road and a short drive back to the town of Gypsum....

At the gate you leave the world behind. Nestled at the feet of North America's World Cup mountain, Beaver Creek is a custom-designed resort with the safe, unhurried feel of an Alpine hamlet. From the skating rink in the village square to chocolate-chip cookies served fresh from the oven each afternoon at the lifts, and from the ''Ivy League ski school'' to the world-famous performing arts center, this is perhaps the very best of luxury family skiing. And there is a mountain of prestigious awards for food, wine, and customer service to prove it....

Under blue sky three hundred days a year and with more groomed terrain than anywhere on the planet, families reconnect and celebrate here from year to year and generation to generation. Coupled with the vision inherent in the spirit of Vail's founders, and a modern day commitment to excellence in all aspects of operation, the vacation experience is world class. From the Vail Snowsports School to the activities and festivals, the shops and spas, dining, nightlife and accommodations, Vail can credibly lay claim to being a resort like nothing on earth....
