About This Trail
You'll be doing a lot of jumping with little tree coverage. It can get hot in the summer. Most of the incline will have tree coverage when you start at Bear Lake, and you'll go down into the trees at the end. Better views of the Divide and Long's Peak can be seen on the way down. It will take you to the side of the lake with the best mountain views. It's a beautiful lake.
