An old road leads into this scenic lake. As you walk around the lake, you will pass a clearing on the north shore that was the site of a girls' summer camp in the 1940s and a beautiful narrow waterfall on the inlet stream at its eastern end. A logging operation was located near the outlet.
A spur trail continues to Queer Lake (moderate).
