Herman Gulch (#98)

Beginning at the Herman Gulch Trailhead, starting on an old sawmill road, the trail emerges out of the forested trees within a few miles. The subalpine flowers add beauty to an otherwise rocky terrain. Towards the top of the trail, rock cairns lead the way to Herman Lake. This trail is a section of the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail.
