Truro Lake

A challenging day hike following a wilderness route to a high alpine lake. This trail, which is no longer maintained by the White River National Forest, is used primarily by anglers who are seeking a remote fishing experience. The trail is extremely steep and poses significant route-finding challenges at several points along the way. It is recommended for experienced off-trail hikers. Hauling a fully loaded backpack up to this lake is for masochists only.
