| The Conejos River
(rabbit
in Spanish) is one of the principal rivers in Colorado's South San Juan
Wilderness. The river begins on the Continental Divide and flows
easterly from the wilderness area approximately 90 miles through the town of
Antonito (county seat) to join the Rio Grande River on its journey to the
Gulf of Mexico. The Conejos River
Basin with 550 miles of public river and lake fishing is easily the best
kept secret in the West. The Conejos is a five hour drive from major
cities and very few fishermen choose the Conejos, but rather fish other
rivers in Colorado like the Frying Pan, Roaring Fork, Colorado, San Juan,
Green, North Platte River or the Gunnison. |

| The trout mix in the Conejos River is half
rainbow and half German Brown. The Lake Fork Ranch is surrounded by
the Rio Grande National Forest and controls the motor access to the Lake
Fork. The trail up the Lake Fork is steep and narrow and is full of
fallen timber, but a fisherman will be rewarded with rainbow, brown and
the Rio Grande cutthroat trout (which are protected). The Lake Fork
is a "Wild Trout" water - flies and lures only - and the
cutthroat must be released immediately. The Conejos river basin is
one of the most incredible fisheries in Colorado with its many tributaries
starting above Platoro Lake (North Fork, Middle Fork and Rio Azul) below
(Elk Creek, Lake Fork, Bear Creek, Saddle Creek, South Fork, Beaver Creek,
Rough Creek, Manga Creek, Sheep Creek, Trail
Creek and Bighorn Creek. With the following high mountain lakes (Platoro
Reservoir, Rock Lake, Big Lake, Tobacco Lake, Bear Lake, Twin Lakes,
Timber Lake, Glacier Lake, Luguna Ruybal Lake, No Name Lake, Green Lake,
Victoria Lake, Blue Lake, Aberjines Lake, Ruybalid Lake, Lost Lake,
Empedrado Lake, Acascosa Lake, and Beaver Lake). The area definitely
provides a wonderful opportunity for all types of fly fishing.

| Hunting, like the fishing around the Lake
Fork is excellent for Elk and Deer. Archery and black powder seasons
start in August through September with rifle season running into
November. Horseback is the only way to hunt or fish in the mountains
around the Lake Fork Ranch. |
