Buckskin Mountain State Park is about 20 miles south of Lake Havasu City. We drove there today to take a look.
Just south of town, about 10 miles or so, Lake Havasu ends and the Colorado river forks into two flows. The westernmost is still called the Colorado, while the eastern becomes the Bill Williams.
Buckskin Mountain State Park is another few miles south of the fork at a bend in the Colorado River. Despite its name, the park is all about the river. It's a pleasant spot primarily used for trailer camping and some boating.
We drove down this morning to take a look and wound up walking a short trail to see the river from a higher elevation.
