Deep Lake is an out-and-back trail with two short fingers on its northern end, both leading to campsites. The trail is an easy, hardpacked dirt road with several tall and sharp water bars, where low-clearance, long-wheelbase vehicles such as pickup trucks, RVs, or trailers will need to use caution. The western finger of the trail is primarily used as an access and resupply road for users of the Colorado Trail, as it ends at a large campsite alongside the popular hiking trail. The eastern finger is another access road to a gate at a firewood-cutting permit zone. The eastern finger offers a large campsite next to Dry Lake, just before the gate. The trail is single-lane the entire way but suitable for just about any vehicle.
