    Taylor Lake opens up to views of Panorama Ridge and Mount Bell reflected in the lake on a windless day. The campground has five tent pads, bear-proof food storage, a picnic table area, and a pit toilet. You need a permit to spend the night here.

    Taylor Lake and its small backcountry campground make an excellent overnight base for anyone planning the ascent to Panorama Ridge East. The campground offers a peaceful staging point whether you’re breaking up the approach or settling in after tackling the steeper alpine. With the ridge looming above and the meadow and lake stretching out around you, it’s one of the most rewarding spots to rest on this route.
