Camp grounds are available at most of the lakes although there are some limitations There are also a few and scattered limitations for the use and fishing of the lakes such as some require artificle lures and bait only while some other lakes prohibit swimming (Woods Canyon for one) and others place restrictions on gas powered boat motors and/or size.
