Boating hours being reduced at Horsetooth, Carter

 Here's the updated schedule for boat ramp hours at the two Larimer County reservoirs; water levels are dropping. The Pinewood boat ramp remains closed, so you can't launch a trailered boat there. 

Boating Access Hours

Every vessel entering Horsetooth Reservoir and Carter Lake must be inspected for ANS. That requires specific hours of operation for boating. No boat launching is permitted outside of these hours; however, boats already on the reservoirs may continue operation.
