Four wheel accessible to the trail head only. Very rough terrain but doable in a proper vehicle, watch out for high centering on the initial hill. Hiking the access road is actually better to do to the trail head than four wheeling, keeps the mountain "wild" instead of over trekked by machines. Beautiful lake and worth the hike, but not for the faint of heart. The trail is mostly not maintained, and there are a ton of bikers bombing the hills loosing rocks so the trail is unstable. The last segment at the dam is treacherous but short. Fishes well, no bait allowed, catch and release only.
Great hike with beautiful views along the way. The lake is pristine and a great place for a picnic before heading back down.
If you have a high clearance four wheel drive you can drive to within about a mile at the lake. There a lot of cutthroat trout in this Lake. It's very steep around the lake so some of the shoreline could be difficult to access.
Insane views and you get cell service at the lake !
What a hike to get to this lake! I caught two fish my first time there and got a killer workout in hiking up there.
