Description
This is a great way to experience the beauty and charm of winter in the Rockies on snowshoes on this short but challenging 4 mile walk up to a beautiful alpine lake.
We will drive from Denver an hour and a half past Nederland to get deep in Rockies to where the trailhead is. From there we can hike up to lost lake which is a 4 mile round trip and takes about 3 hours or less total.
If the trail is already packed down we can also have the option of using micro spikes instead of the snow shoes. No extra cost either way and microspikes can make it easier in long run too. We also provide hiking poles and gators so snow doesn't get into your boots.
We can have a sandwich, snacks and chips at the lake before heading back downhill to the van and then an hour and a half back to Denver.
Snow shoeing is fun and I know some of the best areas to go. We realize many people come from lower elevations so this is a good option. Since the trail is covered in snow
and there aren't any markings, its good to have a guide who knows where to go and how not to get lost. Hope to see you soon!
