    Tips

    July 13, 2023

    Turquoise Lake Dam acts as a hydroelectric power source, being fueled entirely by snowmelt from the peaks surrounding the lake. You can cross the dam and follow the road all the way around the lake or connect to the Turquoise Lake Trail on the other side of the reservoir at May Queen Campground.
