There are no breathtaking glacier views along the trail to Red Shirt Lake, as it mainly runs through the forest. On arrival, however, you have a beautiful view of the lake. You can also rent canoes to sail on its waters. There is also a cabin on the shores of the lake.
There's a pit toilet here (bring your own toilet paper just in case). Last time I was here, the floor of the toilet was quite rotten. Maybe it's been replaced by now, but just in case... tread carefully!
