Overview

Lost Lake is located in the Okanogan - Wenatchee National Forest in the Manastash Ridge Recreation area. This trail is a nice but difficult drive to a beautiful alpine lake. The trail going in is quite technical and quite bumpy as it skirts a lava formation, and rocks and more rocks are on the menu. While the trail is difficult the reward is a beautiful lake to enjoy a lunch or maybe some overnight camping. There is a nice stream crossing and some short off-camber hill climbs to keep it interesting. This is the only lake in the area that is accessible by 4x4 so it is a must-see if you are wheeling in the area.
