Richard Pilatzke and Gary Thompson will be leading an August chapter trip to Silver Dollar Lake. This is a hike in lake off Guanella pass that is located at 12,200 feet elevation. The trailhead is at 11,200 feet and the distance to the lake is 1.6 miles. We will leave from the South Suburban Board of Realtors parking lot at 6:00 am on Saturday, August 20th. We are starting early due to the common thunderstorms on Guanella. Participants should bring water, a good hat, sunblock, camera, bug spray, and any other necessities, but remember that you will be carrying everything you bring for 1.6 miles. Silver Dollar has greenback cutthroats, the trail is open , and the lake is fishing well, according to Your Fishing Partner in Idaho Springs.
