Granite Lake is a beautiful mountain lake surrounded by peaks and wild life. The great thing about Granite Lake is that it is at a low elevation making the 6 to 7 mile hike in rather fair. The Lake sits just above 4,000 feet with “A” Peak towering directly behind it at over 8,000 feet. This setting creates a beautiful scenic location, one in which I highly recommend everyone to visit. The lake is crystal clear, glacier feed and home to tons of 5 to 6 inch cutthroats. Take caution with pets because there are lots of Mule deer and a curious young Moose.
