Springtime Paddling on the Horsetooth Reservoir



My recent paddling is limited to short workouts on the Horsetooth Reservoir in Fort Collins foothills - just 5 to 8 miles in Thunderbolt kayak. I am launching typically in the North Eltuck Cove at Lory State Park or in the South Bay, but today, I started in the Inlet Bay next to a marina. The reservoir is still pretty quiet. I saw only two motorboats tonight. You need to be prepared for strong winds.

These three pictures below I shot with Pentax Optio W30 in my turning point north of the Quarry Cove. This is one of my favorite spots on the Horsetooth with a small canyon and remains of a sandstone quarry. I had several photo sessions there a year ago.
