Lonesome Lake Snowshoe

Thanks to Dave, Wayne, and Neil for joining us on our annual winter snowshoe hike of Lonesome Lake.   It was the perfect day and lots of powder snow.   No snowshoes were lost on any stream crossings.    There were several boy scout troops at the hut, and all were having a great time.  

Join us for this winter snowshoe hike to Lonesome Lake Hut. The whole hike is just over 6 miles with about 1200 feet of elevation gain. We will hike up the Basin-Cascades trail and Cascade Brook trail past cascades and waterfalls to the Lonesome Lake hut, where we will have lunch inside. There is a stream crossing on the Basin-Cascades trail that can be difficult in high water, but this time of year it should be frozen over and snow covered, so it should not be an issue. The hut will be in self service mode, so pack your own lunch. We will then descend the more popular Lonesome Lake trail to Lafayette campground, and then take the Pemi trail back to the Basin parking lot where we're parked.
