Holly Lake is a remote high-alpine lake in Paintbrush Canyon. This is a popular camping spot with backpackers, but is also a great destination for day hikers looking for a challenge. You get fantastic views of Paintbrush Canyon, and Leigh and Jackson Lakes in the valley below. Holly Lake is a great place to eat a snack, take some photographs, and dip your feet in the freezing waters before continuing on toward Paintbrush Divide or heading back down the canyon toward String and Leigh Lakes.
