Location
The trailhead for the Lost Lake Trail is located about 5.1 miles up the Rawah (North) Trail. The Lost Lake Trail passes through an attractive lodgepole pine forest. The trail climbs up the hillside to the northwest for about 0.3 mile. It then levels off for the next 0.4 mile, passing near two small, shallow ponds. The trail then descends the final 0.2 mile to Lost Lake. This beautiful subalpine lake has several interesting rock outcrops on its shoreline.
