Review & FAQ:
May Queen is situated at the western end of Turquoise Lake, about 100 miles southwest of Denver. It is situated in a shaded lodgepole pine forest, at 9900 feet above sea level, with panoramic views of the lake and the Holy Cross and Mount Massive Wilderness areas. The Turquoise Lake Trail is 6.4 km long and runs parallel to the shoreline. A variety of plant and animal species can be seen along the way, possibly chipmunks, beavers and porcupines. There are remnants of mining activity evident along the trail. The Timberline Lake trailhead is close by, with access to the Colorado Trail.
