Bringing a camera or sketchbook might be rewarding, as the unique lighting conditions offer excellent opportunities to capture the essence of Canyon Lake during this season. Overall, December unveils a distinct character of Canyon Lake, less crowded yet filled with natural wonder—a perfect destination for anyone seeking both solace and inspiration in winter’s embrace.

A vibrant turquoise lake, Hanging Lake, is surrounded by lush green trees and a rocky cliff. Multiple waterfalls cascade into the clear water, with fallen logs partially submerged, creating a serene natural oasis in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado.
Hanging Lake - Glenwood Canyon, CO ⛰️
One of my favorite hidden gems in Colorado! Hanging Lake in Glenwood Canyon is a breathtaking oasis, perfect for a summer adventure. The crystal-clear waters and stunning waterfalls made this hike absolutely worth it. The hike itself is 1.2 miles, steep, rough, and rocky, but again well worth it! ⛰

Approaching turquoise waters in Navajo Canyon. You can hear me say to myself or perhaps the camera, “This is sooo cool” as we approach narrower little passageways to explore among all the turquoise and red rock. Like a little adventure video game! August 16-22, 2023. #LakePowell #LakePow
