Lunch Lake

The national park guide said there was a bathroom but we didn’t find it. The Lunch Lake is about 0.8 miles downhill from the High Divide/ Save Lake Basin Loop. It is quiet and incredibly beautiful. We saw several deer and enjoyed the water. The mosquitoes are relentless and would absolutely recommend bug spray or some other repellent. Definitely worth the hike. A perfect place to camp if you are doing the loop. Might have been the best campsite we saw the entire trail.

Had a special stay here. It was so picturesque, with campsites very spread out and a pit toilet. Great waypoint on the 7 lakes basin loop, but note it is 0.5 miles off the main trail and 700’ elevation.

Tourist trap. 700' drop in all stairs to get into the basin. Crowded. Lot's of 'trail closed' signs. The lakes are best seen from the ridge up top, do not bother dropping in.

100% worth going down to the lake, would recommend bug spray during the summer months

Beautiful lake. Excellent view of the surrounding basin
