About This Access Site
Squaw Lake offers a convenient boat ramp access point for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats to explore the peaceful backwaters of the Colorado River. The ramp is located within the Mittry Lake Wildlife Area, providing opportunities to observe diverse wildlife and habitats.
The lake itself is a calm, shallow body of water suitable for a range of paddle craft. Boaters should be aware of fluctuating water levels and use caution, as the lake can become quite shallow in certain areas. Nearby T.K. Jones Campground provides camping and amenities like drinking water, flush toilets, and a dump station for those looking to spend more time on the water.
For those seeking additional exploration, the Mittry Lake Wildlife Area and nearby Senator Wash Boat Ramp Day Use Area offer further recreational options along the Colorado River corridor. Paddlers and boaters are encouraged to research water conditions, plan accordingly, and practice safe boating techniques when launching from Squaw Lake.
