2026 OHV HIGHWAY PROGRAM

The Hinsdale County/Lake City OVH Program starts Monday, June 1 and continues until Wednesday, September 30. The program allows OHVs to travel on Hwy 149 from CR 30 to Ocean Wave Dr.

The CDOT Transportation Commission has approved the Hinsdale County/Town of Lake City OHV Highway program to continue for ten years, starting in 2026.

The ten-year permit was approved by the Transportation Commission following approval by a majority of Hinsdale County voters to an advisory ballot question in November, 2025. At the end of each summer, Hinsdale County, Town of Lake City and partners will continue to review the program and provide CDOT with a season-end report.

Lake San Cristobal is closed for the season to motorized boats.

The Colorado Parks and Wildlife motorized boat inspection station ended operation for 2025 on October 31 after which the gate at the boat launch was closed and locked. The inspection station will re-open next spring. No motorized boats are allowed in the lake after the inspection station is closed. Non-motorized watercraft do not require inspections and are allowed on the lake at any time.

The gate at Lake San Cristobal will be opened after the lake is iced out for winter recreation. Please remember recreating on the lake ice in the winter is at your own risk.

CPW boat inspections are mandatory for most boats entering Colorado waters to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species (ANS) like zebra and quagga mussels. All motorized boats and sailboats require an Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS) Stamp and must be inspected by a state-certified inspector. Boaters should "Clean, Drain, and Dry" their vessels and gear before arriving at an inspection station and have all compartments, anchors, and gear accessible for the inspection.
