Eleven Mile State Park is a Colorado State Park located in Park County, 11miles south of Lake George, Colorado, United States. Established in 1970, the 7662acres park surrounds 3405acres, 5.5miles long Eleven Mile Canyon Reservoir. The reservoir itself was completed in 1932 by Denver Water.[2] [3] Facilities include a marina, a visitors center and over 300 campsites. There are 5miles of trails available for hikers and bicyclists. Fish species include cutthroat, rainbow, brown trout and northern pike. Eleven Mile Reservoir is famous for the thriving Kokanee salmon population found in the river current along the north side of the reservoir known as the Dream Stream. This reservoir is also known for being very windy in the afternoon. A required daily vehicle park pass can be obtained at the entrance of the park. Daily species possession limits are as follows: trout, 4 total, two over 16" and two under 16", or four under 16"; salmon, 10; pike and crawdads, unlimited. Cottontail rabbit, white-tailed jackrabbit, coyote, muskrat and ground squirrels are commonly seen in the park. Mule deer, pronghorn, porcupine, badger, black bear and elk are seen occasionally.[4]
