Lake Solitude — Attraction in Four Corners States

Fun hike from Silver Lake at Brighton... Lake Solitude is more like a large swampy pond, but we saw a beaver swimming across, and deer came out of the brush. It wasn't highly trafficked, we were alone most of the time. Great little hike. Aspen foresty sections, pine foresty sections, lots of good photo opps. You'll get your "pretty" lake fix at...

For me the hike to the lake was more rewarding than the lake itself. Silver lake is beautiful although a little crowded. The birch tree forest is gorgeous and so peaceful. But don’t tattoo the trees with your initials – it’s childish and tacky. Enjoy them,...

Very nice hike, easy, lots of wild flowers, shaded and only 1.3 miles. There is wildlife, last time we saw moose and this time it was only squirrels...
