Soda Lake Trailhead
This is a remote trailhead located off of the Gros Ventre Road at Soda Lake. The trailhead is fairly non-descript and is a small pull-off from the access road near the lake, which is mostly pine trees and sagebrush. This trailhead provides access to the Soda Lake Trail #4151, which is non-motorized year round and enters the Wilderness almost immediately. No facilities located on site. Small kiosk with a map. Four wheel drive is recommended. Visitors pass through a gate that needs to be closed behind them. Road is difficult when wet and steep in places and is not recommended for large trailers. Trailer turnaround is possible at the lake but difficult. No cellular service.
