Lost Lake

Highlight • Lake

Lost Lake is actually pretty easy to find, assuming you start out from the nearby Brooklyn Lake Road. You can also make Lost Lake the end of a much longer hike from neighboring trails, or a waypoint in a circumnavigation of Browns Peak.

Either way, this remote beauty is a stellar place to stop for a while, whether you're dayhiking or a backpacker looking for a place to spend the night.
