Lake Lillian Backdoor
3.0 miles, roundtrip Gain: 1000 ft. Highest Point: 4800 ft.
Brutal uphill climb and descent to Lillian. Then trail traverses across a rock face with dangerous exposure straight down to the water. Another brutal uphill climb above Lillian to get to Rampart.
FR 136 road has many large potholes that fill up in rain or snow. It is one narrow lane, the brush on both sides is overgrown and scrapes the car. Few wide spots, hope you don’t meet another car coming the opposite direction. Do not go here if the weather looks dicy, rainy or snowy.
