Lower Red Castle Lake, standing at 10,760 feet above sea level, provides stunning views of Red Castle Mountain and is a popular backcountry lake for photographers. The lake itself is home to brook trout, cutthroat trout, and rainbow trout. Fancy a swim? It's legal, but it will be cold even on the warmest summer days.
