Consolation Lake

Consolation Lake Trail was the first trail I encountered that is in recommended group access territory.

Since groups weren't mandatory, I proceeded on my own on this trail that extended from the Moraine Lake lookout trail.


Within listening distance of a mountain stream, the trail heads into a forest before it reaches Consolation Lake, where you not only get a clear view of the lake

but also the mountains

and alpine meadows.

Unfortunately, no grizzly bears were spotted on this hike.
