Quake Lake Access
Quake Lake Access
Quake Lake Access provides a boat launch on Earthquake Lake along US Highway 287, offering convenient access for boaters and anglers to this scenic 6-mile-long reservoir.
The shoreline is accessible directly from the highway, and the nearby Earthquake Lake Visitor Center (open Memorial Day through mid-September) provides interpretive information about the area's unique 1959 earthquake geology.
Note that float tube fishing is not recommended due to numerous submerged timbers in the lake and occasional high winds.
