Lost Lake is one of many high elevation reservoirs within the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Because most of the trails in the area are in wilderness areas, there aren't a ton of mountain biking options out here. For that reason, this lake is one of the main mountain biking destinations in this part of the mountains.

From the The Upper Slide Trail Trailhead, or Cascabel Trailhead, you can access the northeastern end of the popular Slide Trail, which links up to the Orilla Verde Campground and Taos Junction Bridge and Boat Launch.

This is a small, picturesque, alpine lake. Wheeler Peak and Mount Walter, the highest and second-highest points in New Mexico, respectively, can be seen rising above the lake, just to the west.
