River National Forest
Available for both hiking and horseback
riding, the 4.6 mile Grouse Lake Trail is reached from the trailhead by
following a dirt road through pastureland for about 0.24 mile where the
road turns left. The trail begins here and continues straight before
reaching a fork where West Grouse Trail goes right. Staying left on Grouse
Lake Trail continue on to cross Grouse Creek on two logs at 1.3 miles.
Crossing water 6 times, Grouse Lake Trail's final climb brings you into
Holy Cross Wilderness and to Grouse Lake at the foot of Grouse Mountain. |
