is a great place to camp; Rio Brazos has a good whitewater paddling spot close by. Now, you may think that's heaps but there's even more exciting things to do here in the San Juan and Jemez Mountains. Whitewater paddling is glorious
on Rio de los Brazos; a spree to Cold Lake wouldn't be complete without taking a look at Alkali Spring. If you want a good time in the great outdoors, just come on down to Cold Lake. You could also check out Blue Lake while you're here at Cold Lake; it's close by, and if you need a site to stay Branding Iron Motel is a splendid choice.

Rio Brazos
 | 15 miles away This stretch is not do-able to the average boater. It is anything but. The given put-in and take-out coordinates put you through at least one mandatory portage on private property with a less-than-content owner. It's a two day trip, so there is at least one night of camping on private property. The run can only be done when the spring run-off is exactly right, and the V+ rating is not joking. This run is just not done. Go ahead and prove me wrong at your own risk....Note the 40' high waterfall about a mile in from the box downstream entrance. i have fished this many times,and think you would be crazy to run it, not to mention its all on private property.... |
Bandelier National Monument
 | 38 miles away It's not in the San Juan Mountains.... |
