Description:
The Lake Johnson Trail starts at an intersection
with the Skyline Trail
251 about 150 yards north of the stream crossing. This
perennial stream is not shown on some maps but is obvious
on the ground. Initially the trail skirts the north boundary
of a boggy meadow just north of the stream. From here the
trail travels up the hillside, remaining considerably north
of the stream. The incline is steady as the trail climbs almost
700 feet to the lake basin just below Redondo Peak. |
Notes:
 This
trail is in the Pecos Wilderness. Motorized equipment and
mechanized transportation, including mountain bikes, hunter
carts, and chainsaws are prohibited.
Camping
is prohibited within 200 feet of the lake. Use existing campsites,
preferably as far from the lake as possible. Pack out all
your trash. |
