This lake is so wonderful. Since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always stop by close by Bear Lake; you'll possibly meet some folks from Taos here. Not far from Williams Lake, you'll find Horseshoe Lake which is a pretty lake, and great skiing awaits you at Taos. Williams Lake is a beautiful lake in the Sangre De Cristo

A delightful nearby hotel is Sagebrush Inn; the top of Fraser Mountain is easily spotted from Williams Lake. This lake is so wonderful. Going for a hike along the Lost Lake Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this area, and you can run the rapids of Red River. Man, is there heaps of entertaining things to do in the Sangre De Cristo Mountains. Have a great hiking adventure along the Number 3 Lift Trail; a nice spot to camp here at Williams Lake is Twining Campground.
Williams Lake is generally a quite waterless spot; the month with most of the rain is August, and the driest month of the year is February. Whohoo, so many cool things in one place! Williams Lake is excellent! Rio Grande is a wonderful whitewater spot right next door to Williams Lake. And if you're still looking for more outdoors fun things just keep reading. Martinez Canyon is near Williams Lake and is a nice place; why not camp at Italianos Campground while you're here at Williams Lake.

Taos
13 miles away
...the world's most unique and picturesque ski resorts. It is a place where one can escape into the ancient cultures of the Southwest or explore the side of a vast mountain that has been opened up for skiing and snowboarding, but not tamed. Taos combines the warm ambiance of a small European-style village nestled at the base of a great mountain, a superb ski school and an ambiance founded on the classic pleasures of skiing and snowboarding. Taos blends its high elevation and arid desert climate to provide skiers with the perfect conditions; light dry snow and bright sunshine. From the famed steeps to gentle bowls, Taos' terrain appeals to the super-expert and the beginner alike. With a peak elevation of 11,819 feet, a base of 9,207 feet and 1,294 acres of ski trails, Taos offers varied and challenging terrain to delight skiers of all abilities.
One of Taos' most enduring ski traditions is the steep skiing off The Ridge. This requires a hike of anywhere from 10 minutes to one hour to get to these ''extreme, double-diamond'' runs. The reward is the best ''steep and deep'' skiing in A...
