This area is a shallow reservoir located in the valley of Hermit Lakes Creek in the headwaters of the Rio Grande. The lake is managed as a cold-water fishery and has easy access on county roads.
Fishing on the Rio Grande River can bring in rainbow trout, native cutthroat and brown trout in all sizes up to 18 pounds. River rafting, kayaking, canoeing, and tubing take place to one extent or another over portions of this section of the river.
