Good morning and welcome to the Tuesday version of more to know Monday. We spent much of the weekend camping up in Dillon, CO. 🏔️
Perched at a cool 9,117 feet in the Rocky Mountains, Dillon, Colorado is an alpine paradise famous for its massive reservoir, endless outdoor adventures, and a fascinating underwater history. The original town of Dillon sits at the bottom of Lake Dillon! It was relocated in the early 1960s so engineers could build the dam and reservoir. 🌊
Massive Water Supply: Lake Dillon can hold a whopping 83 billion gallons of water and supplies the majority of Denver’s drinking water through an extensive tunnel system. 🚰
High-Altitude Sailing: Despite sitting nearly two miles above sea level, Lake Dillon features over 26 miles of shoreline and a marina that is perfect for boating, paddleboarding, and kayaking. ⛵️
Epic Early-Season Hikes: Trails like the Tenderfoot Trail are fantastic for getting outside early in the year, offering panoramic views of the water and surrounding mountain ranges. 🥾
We are so thankful to live here and are always encouraging folks to explore more.
