Along the way, you hike through Aspen thickets that have names and sayings carved into the tree trunks. Most are by the Basques, who have inhabited this area for years. One of the trees says, "Biva los Baskos," or, "Long live the Basques."
Our first hike to Griswold Lake was on September 17, 2010. We had a beautiful day to climb the 3200 vertical feet to the lake. It was a tough hike, but very worthwhile. I spotted a coyote. We plan to camp at the lake on our next trip.
Distance (round trip): 6 or 7 miles
Elevation gain: 3200 ft
