This trip is a six-hour outing for 1-6 clients that includes a cold lunch. The lake lies 1.3 miles up a moderately challenging hiking trail through scenic mountain country. The hike totals at around 1000' gain in elevation. Parking at the trailhead is located in the Town of Palmer Lake within easy driving distance of Colorado Springs and Denver. While the lake is home to small populations of both Cutthroat and Tiger Trout, our primary target on this trip is large to Master Class Brook Trout.
This lake is most often fished with minimal gear, though we do still provide hubs and heaters. There are no restroom facilities at the lake, so we do recommend stopping to use the facilities prior to arriving at the trailhead. The hike can be particularly challenging in the winter, but we do have ice cleats available as desired. Trips are six hours long and able to be scheduled from 0800-1400.
Ice rods, insulated hub, heaters, tackle, and bait included; Clients are welcome to bring their own equipment.
