I love the Boulder Mountain area, and the canyons coming off of the mountain. It is a great area to fish, hike and camp.

Over the years I’ve helped assemble two different guides to fishing Boulder Mountain lakes. Those printed guides were valuable in their day, but are outdated now.

Internet technology has evolved to the point that it on-line guides can be very useful – perhaps even more useful than printed material. With that in mind, I’m attempting to create an on-line Boulder Mountain fishing guide. I’ve got a good start, as you can see here.

Lately I’ve been way too busy and so I haven’t been able to keep completely current on lake and road conditions on the mountain. Because of that, some of the info now in my guide may be dated. I would really like to make this a community project and so I invite all of you to help me make this the best guide available anywhere. I know there are folks out there who spend considerable time on the mountain. Please send me details about lakes and fish, along with photos.

Use this form to share your insights. Or you can simply email me, and attach photos.

Google maps are an integral part of this guide. I now have maps on-line showing the location of most lakes and I’ll add a few more as I have time.

I’ve used Google Maps and Google Earth extensively as I’ve worked on this. Google Earth is amazing. Using it I’ve identified a few lakes I never knew existed, and I hope to visit them this summer. They will probably turn out to be small and shallow, without fish, but it will still be fun to explore and find them.

My guide provides latitude and longitude coordinates for the lakes. Those coordinates are used to generate my on-line maps. You can also simply copy and past the coordinates into the Google Earth search bar and it will fly you right to that spot. You can then zoom in and out, and plan to see what is in the neighborhood.

Let me know if you have comments, or want to share info or photos.

Thanks,
