Echo Lake Park is a park located along the Mount Evans Scenic Byway about 33.5 mi (54 km) west of Denver, Colorado. The park provides a stone shelter with picnic tables and barbecue grills on one end of the lake, and the 1926 Echo Lake Lodge (gift shop and restaurant service only) and an Arapaho National Forest campground are found at the other. Access to backpacking trails, including the Chicago Lakes trail and Lincoln Lakes trail, can be found adjacent to the lake. The park is part of the Denver Mountain Parks system.

And make her airy tongue more hoarse than mine
With repetition of “My Romeo!””

back
to the lake of Delos;
lest all the song notes
pause and break
across a blood-stained throat....”

And let us, without staying,
All in our gowns of green so gay
Into the Park a-maying!”
