– A reservoir just past Placer Valley accessible by car, Montgomery reservoir is stocked with trout and has nice hiking above the reservoir toward Wheeler Lake (which is also a 4x4 road). The source of the Middle Fork of the South Platte River sits high in the planning area above 12,000 feet at Wheeler Lake and then flows into Montgomery Reservoir. Montgomery was founded in August 1861, two years after gold was discovered in the area. By 1862, Montgomery had 150 cabins, five sawmills, three hotels and the largest dancehall in the region. In the 1950s, the City of Colorado Springs began construction of Montgomery Reservoir and the remains of Montgomery were flooded. Today, Montgomery Reservoir above Alma stores water for Colorado Springs. Significant efforts by Colorado Springs Utilities have helped ensure that Montgomery Reservoir is accessible to the public for outdoor recreation such as hiking and fishing. In addition, the path to Wheeler Lake is both a challenging and popular OHV route.
