Lower Bowns Reservoir can offer that most precious desert commodity--water--as well as the opportunity to cool off. If riders wanted to bikepack in, the Lower Bowns Campground has a few primitive sites as well. There is no plumbed water here, so if you plan to use the reservoir for anything other than taking a dip or fishing, you'll need to make sure you have the knowledge and equipment to filter and/or purify it properly.
