Hartenstein Lake - Colorado Rockies
Solitude. Hartenstein Lake. Central Colorado.

Hartenstein Lake is about 100 straight west of Colorado Springs in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. It is a short hike off the trail up to Brown's Pass. I last hiked this with my oldest son 5 years ago. The road to Brown's Pass is now a hiking trail. In my younger days, the road was open to 4WD and I crossed Brown's Pass a few times in a jeep.
Lake Hartenstein is at approximately 11,500 ft which is near the timber line in this part of Colorado.
There are active beaver works both above and below the lake.
Here is a view from the trail before reaching the lake.
Thanks for joining me on this short trip down memory lane...
