Lily Pad Lake TH #50
This trail is very near town and is a popular trail into the Eagles Nest Wilderness. Initially, the trail travels south through thick stands of lodgepole pine and aspen. Along the way you will cross some small streams and pass by several beaver ponds. These beaver ponds attracted fur trappers during 1810-1840, the boom years of the fur trade. The lake is a great place to relax and enjoy your lunch. Parking is extremely limited: consider taking the free Summit Stage bus to the trailhead.
- Moose have been seen in this area. Please keep your distance and do not approach them; they can be aggressive and may threatened by dogs.
