Here are various Carter Lake websites regarding: fishing, sailing, camping, water conservation and maps.
The valley abounds with wild flowers, birds, wild animals and the horses and pets of the 70 residents. And it is quiet enough to hear them. Behind the ridge to the west is Longs Peak (14,259ft).
