Gary had good fishing here - Trout Lake above is very pretty too! Nice trout dinners from both Trout Lake and Alta Lakes, while in this area. There was an abundance of marmots around, plus heard coyotes at night for the first time in a long time! We really liked the Matterhorn campground (except for proximity to the road - but most campgrounds in a mountain pass are right off the road!). One of our favorite spots to visit in all of Colorado - might be a place we return to, but will go up from the south (Cortez) next time. The camp hosts at Matterhorn seemed to get a raw deal though - only one couple and they get NO days off - so they have to make grocery runs or go for a hike or go fishing while one of them stays behind at the campground! Hope they were getting paid a fair amount for being held prisoner.
