About Lake Solitude
Lake Solitude has its own place in the North Inlet / Grand Lake Area (West) landscape: a hard lake at 9,745 feet. It sits on the west side of the Continental Divide.
It is a west-side lake, north Inlet Trail. The approach from North Inlet TH is 6.5 miles one-way and belongs in the hard tier for this guide. The North Inlet and Grand Lake area is west-side backcountry: longer valleys, broad drainages, and fewer quick turnarounds. The distance and setting make this a plan-ahead destination, not a casual lake stop.
NPS distance tables place the North Inlet Trailhead near Grand Lake on the west side, where long valley approaches replace the short, crowded Bear Lake Road pattern.
