Buckeye Reservoir Access

Buckeye Reservoir Access provides a free public boat ramp near Pioneer Campground for small watercraft (5 HP motor limit, wakeless speed), making it ideal for fishing and paddling enthusiasts.

The access point is located at 7,600 feet elevation in the La Sal Mountains near Paradox, Colorado, with 30 reservable campsites ($15/night) and dispersed camping available.

Note that access requires driving approximately 13 miles on winding gravel forest roads from Paradox, which can be dangerous in severe weather—do not rely solely on GPS for directions.
