7 · season May to
No amenities available immediately surrounding the trailhead. Access Lost Lake Butte trail and Old Skyline trail from this trailhead. Parking is available just to the south of the trailhead.
Restrictions <strong><em>**Lost Lake is currently limiting parking capacity within the campground and resort area to 50%. Friday-Monday, a road barricade is staffed 4 miles below the entrance to the resort. Once parking capacity has reached 50% vehicles will be turned around at that location. This is the result of parking congestion along the roadways accessing the campground and resort. The congestion has made it difficult for emergency personnel to access the site.** </em></strong>

About this trail's facts
The lines are the US Forest Service's National Forest System trails layer (public domain), read 2026-10-16 and simplified for the map; the length is the line's, end to end, and the class, surface, grade and tread width are the forest's own entries where it publishes them - a forest that publishes the centreline alone has none. The trailheads and the points along the way are the Service's recreation points, and the write-ups its own recarea text, unedited. Heights come from USGS 3DEP through Terrain Tiles on AWS (Mapzen/Tilezen), read along each line and rounded; a short trail on steep ground can be off by a few tens of feet. Closures change: check the forest's own site before you go.
