Description
The trail takes you into the relatively flat but sometimes boggy Grandaddy Basin and Brinton Meadow area to Four Lakes Basin and the Highline Trail. It affords access to the following Lakes: Grandaddy, LaMarla, Lodgepole, Betsy, Mohawk, Shadow, Palisade, Lilly Pad, Pine Island, Fish Hatchery, Lost, Rainbow, and several others. The maze of trails that it crosses provide a lot of opportunity for day hikes from a base camp anywhere in the area.Location:
