About Love Lake
The Gorge Lakes setting gives Love Lake its frame: a hard lake, 11,267 feet high, and positioned on the east side of the Continental Divide.
The listed approach is 5.8 miles one-way from Forest Canyon Overlook (off-trail), but this should be treated as a route-finding objective rather than a simple maintained-trail hike. It is one of the Gorge Lakes, and the route is off-trail. In this area, the Gorge Lakes are off-trail objectives above Forest Canyon, known more to map readers than casual park visitors.
NPS wilderness tables include Little Rock Lake in the Gorge Lakes Area, a reminder that this part of the park is treated as backcountry rather than a casual viewpoint stop.
