Soon the weather will be warming and the ice will be melting at the Aurora Reservoir. 

 

I went by the Aurora Reservoir this week and took a few pictures before the crowds swarm the beaches to soak up the sun.  It was very peaceful and only had one brave soul walking across the frozen ice to drill a hole and enjoy an afternoon of ice fishing.

 

The Aurora Reservoir offers lots of summer fun including fishing, sailing, non-motorized boating, windsurfing, a seasonal swim beach, SCUBA area, archery range, and large group picnic shelters. You can also walk or ride your bike on the 8 mile multi-use, concrete trail that circles the reservoir.

 

You can purchase an annual pass for the reservoir for $65.00 ($55.00 for Aurora residents) or just go for the day for $10.00 per carload.  The reservoir is located at 5800 S Powhaton in Aurora. 

 

Just south of the reservoir is Beacon Pointwhich is a great family neighborhood with new construction still going on.  Lennar offers wonderful homes from their Colorado and Heartland series at Beacon Point.  Brand new homes are still available and they still have lots available for ground starts as well.

Hi Belinda,  Interesting that it is 50 degree and the guy was walking across the ice.  Was he there a long time.

I don't know Will.  Since you were with me and we left at the same time - I wouldn't know.  Did you go back to check it out.

That's a great price. We went to the Boulder reservoir last year. I can't remember how much it was for sure, but it was a lot more expensive than I thought it would be.

Now I’m going to be singing Bobby Darrin’s “Splish Splash” the rest of the night!
