Denver lakes are covered with ice but still unsafe. Georgetown got about 3 to 4 inches of snow in the last dump and would have been sailable but the ice is still not safe. Echo lake got 1.5 feet of snow which makes it a heck of a lot better for skiing that ice boating. Nov 30, 1999. Echo Lake is in great condition with 4 to 5 inches of hard ice.
Lake is clear of snow.
Georgetown was covered with ice but it didn't look safe - 2 to 3 inches of ice in most places but open spots. Echo should be good next weekend and Georgetown may also as temps will be on the low side in the mountains. Predictions are for a winter like last year which had great high wind sailing in the mountains.
