About Horseshoe Lake Recreation Area--Mesquite Campground area
The route to Horseshoe Lake is a beautiful but rough route for eleven miles to the lake itself. Horseshoe Dam Road takes the birder through this scenic route with wonderful views of the surrounding mountains. Horseshoe Lake isn't a reservoir filled with a lot of water, as water levels are rather low much of the time. Low water levels that vary give this lake a "marshy" look if there is water in the reservoir. Varying water levels also give the reservoir potential to be a good birding location throughout the year, for different waterfowl, raptors, and probably shorebirds. The best birding here actually isn't at Horseshoe Lake but is done along the eleven-mile route on Horseshoe Dam Road at many different stops and pull offs.
