Description

Lincoln Lake is located just west of Lake McDonald lodge. It's an eight mile hike in and out. The only real elevation gain is going over small Sperry Ridge, than you drop into an Amazing Canyon. The trail is flanked on all sides by THOUSANDS of feet of rock with Waterfalls tumbling down their faces.

Lincoln Lake itself is not all that spectacular, what makes the lake is 1,500' Beaver Chief Falls that drains hidden Lake Ellen Wilson which is right above Lincoln Lake. The best time to hit up this trail is in Spring when the higher Peaks have snow so there's waterfalls EVERYWHERE you look.
