Horseshoe Lake Trail
Begin at the Kinney Creek Trailhead. The trail forks from the Kinney Creek Trail, a third mile after reaching the Byers Peak Wilderness boundary. The trail crosses Kinney Creek, continues southwards, and climbs gradually until a rock garden appears to the east. The 1.7-mile, one-way trail climbs steeply for a short distance but returns to a gradual climb.
