Lost Man Lake Details
This body of water may not have beloved Colorado surrounds of pine trees and snow-covered mountains, but it does offer a unique landscape for those who do not mind something a little different. It is nestled in the saddle of the Sawatch Mountain Range over 12,000-feet above sea level, which means you will need to hike ways to find it. However, you can not miss this brightly blue-colored lake in the middle of the muted brown and gray hills. It is an alpine lake, so the waters should be nice and chilly for those hot summer hikes.
