Hiking

A beautiful alpine lake, set into a veritable moonscape of rock dotted with trees. This starkly beautiful spot makes a good turnaround for some day hikers, but if you're feeling peppy and prepared for traveling through remote terrain in rapidly changing weather, you could complete a loop circumnavigating Browns Peak.
