Description

This less traveled secondary trail should only be taken by those comfortable with backcountry navigation. As the minimally-maintained singletrack wraps around the northern portion of Half Moon Lake the trail quickly disappears, long before reaching Alta Morris Lake. Those looking to camp at Half Moon Lake, might want to consider taking a cross-country routes along the southern shore.
