Just west of Black Lake the Ute Trail trail splits. Both end at the CDT, but the West Ute Trail (right at the fork if you are ascending) takes you higher up to West Ute Lake below Nebo Peak. The Ute Creek Trail (left) takes you to Twin Lakes and Middle Ute Lake. From here at the junction you get an epic view up to the Window and Rio Grande Pyramid.
