There is a place in Lakewood where foothills and prairie meet, a quiet refuge from the bustle of Front Range suburbia that ranks as one of my favorite outdoor sanctuaries. A small creek with headwaters 25 miles west on a 14,000-foot mountain feeds into a lake formed by a large flood control dam, emerging as a creek again on the other side. Upstream from the human-made dam is a lovely beaver dam. I mean no disrespect to the Army Corps of Engineers, but the beaver dam is way more enchanting.
