At 10,980 feet, this gem offers breathtaking views and a challenging trek to reach it. This is a long trail but so worth the views at the lake! It takes about 8.5 miles to reach from the West Snowmass trailhead. Because of its remoteness, it is a popular location for overnight stays, visitors can camp in designated spots (reservation required).
