Hiking to Whitney Lake | Holy Cross Wilderness
Whitney Lake is a relatively short hike to a pretty and peaceful tree-lined lake. But be warned, it may be short but it is also steep almost the entire way! Makes for a quick descent. Hiking to Whitney Lake seems like a super worthwhile destination for fishing - we saw a lot of good sized fish and a fisherman having luck while we were there.
