    Hiking

    Diamond and Mountain Lake are actually two reservoirs that provide water to the town of Leadville. This road junction with the Birds Eye Gulch Jeep Road offers great views down the valley. The basin gets a lot of water, and there can be acres of wildflowers up here sometimes.

    Diamond and Mountain Lake are actually two reservoirs that provide water to the town of Leadville. This road junction with the Birds Eye Gulch Jeep Road offers great views down the valley. The basin gets a lot of water, and there can be acres of wildflowers up here sometimes.

    Being mining country, the roads out here aren't crazy steep (sometimes they are), but they are usually super rocky. Most all of the roads are runnable, but keep your eyes on your feet.
