“A singletrack trail skirting the Shelf Lakes behind Browns Peak.”

— Evan O'Toole
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Dogs: Off-leash

Description

Leave the Gap Lake Trail once you hit North Gap Lake. The trail climbs a bit before skirting the edges of the Shelf Lakes. There are great fishing opportunities back here. The trail just sort of peters out at the outlet of a smaller, unnamed lake.

Overall, this trail features alpine riding with rocks and some wet sections after the Shelf Lakes.
