Awesome spot to park and take it all in. 3 mile drive on a rough road to the lake. Not a road for cars. Went in mid-September and had the place all to ourselves. Road becomes all rock any way narrower around the lake. Narrow off-road vehicle after that point. 4 miles past the lake to Tim Cup pass. Like being on the top of the world. Worth it without a doubt. You can continue beyond the pass. Beautiful country. As of 9/20/24, the Aspens are near peak, which are scattered around the mountains at the lake.
I'm a Colorado native and have been coming to this site for as long as I can remember, and have always loved it. But lately it's just being over run! It's no longer quiet. I get that it's fun to offroad, and 4 wheel, I do that myself, lately, it's just to busy. Just to share my connection to the area, my great uncle, along with the original owner of the Taylor Park trade store (who, as far as I know, their family still runs it) forged Cottonwood Pass.
Beautiful lake. Lot of ohv traffic. No dispersed camping by the lake.
Beautiful lake!! We ATV’d to this lake and it was a breath of fresh air to see. The silence of city life and graceful touch of natures pure sound was blissfully peaceful!
Beautiful place to hang out, fish, 4 wheel drive.
