Manastash Lake Trail Description
Manastash Lake Trail is a great hike if you’re wanting a bit of a quicker trip that still provides nice views. The lake is very pretty and quite peaceful and the trail there is very easy to follow, but watch out for dirt bikers as you go. This hike is best when the larches are yellow.
Begin from the trailhead. There are some junctions in the early portion of this hike, but just keep hiking straight as you drop down the valley wall past Lost Lake. Climb up the other side of the valley, cross the stream, and then drop down once more to Manastash Lake. From here, you’ll simply need to retrace your steps to the trailhead.
