Went up to Lost Lake today, off of 4th of July road. A perfect day for hiking. Walked all around the lake and up some of the Talus slopes to see the old mine areas. Then stopped at the infamous falls on the way back down.
2 wheel drive parking was as crowded as ever at 4th of July road, but there’s always room for more 4×4’s at the parking areas farther back.
For some reason I don’t have this hike in the SelectHikes summer section, I’ll have to fix that. But for now you can look at the Lost Lake trip under Winter Trips and download the tracks from there.
If you want an easy 4-miler, this one can’t be beat.
