Trail Overview
Ellis Lake trail is just a spur trail off Ellis Peak Trail. This trail takes you to Ellis Lake where you will find camping, hiking, and great views. It is important to note that this trail is north facing and high elevation causing it to hold snow some years into July. Take note of snow conditions when planning a trip to Ellis Lake. Note these pictures were taken on June 26th of a drought year, on a good year there is much more snow!
