Description:
The turn-off to Lost Bear Lake is not obvious
from the Pecos River Trail. It is located approximately two
miles upstream from Pecos Falls. Look for a trail emerging
from the Pecos River and heading northeast up the opposite
slope of the river basin. After crossing the meadow along
the Pecos River, the trail enters a thick spruce forest and
begins the steep climb up the hillside. The lake is perched
high up on the slope of Hamilton Mesa ridge. |
Notes:
 This
trail is in the Pecos Wilderness. Motorized equipment and
mechanized transportation, including mountain bikes, hunter
carts, and chainsaws are prohibited.
Due
to the steepness, narrowness, and lack of maintenance, this
trail is not recommended for horse travel. |
