At the corner of the Forest Development Road and Rim to Rose / Third Creek Pond Trails, you will find this pond with the same name as the trail. If you're just returning from the summit of Mount Rose or some other hike, this might be a nice spot to take a little break and get ready for the way down. Otherwise, prepare yourself for the last part of your mountain climb!
