Rocky Mountain National Park Visitor's Guide

Cub Lake in the Winter

"The Cub Lake trail begins in the willow thickets along the Big Thompson River and continues upward through stands of pine and aspen. Hiking the trail, you pass through a varied landscape of moraines, cliffs, streams and ponds. Ice or deep snow sometimes makes the last mile difficult, and may require the use of skis or snowshoes. This hike may be combined with The Pool hike for a six mile loop by taking a connection trail beyond Cub Lake to The Pool. This section of trail may also contain deep snow or ice."

From Bear Lake Road, turn at Moraine Park; follow signs to Cub Lake Trailhead .
