The trailhead is located about 5.3 miles from the mouth of the canyon. Watch for the signs, and park in the small parking lot. Restrooms are available at the trailhead.

You'll follow the White Pine Trail for about a mile before you encounter a fork in the trail. Follow the Red Pine Lake path, going west.





Keep in mind that if you camp overnight, you'll need to be at least 200 feet from the water.
Remember to prepare for your hike to Red Pine Lake. Bring plenty of water and some snacks to fuel your journey, and check weather conditions before you go. It's always a good idea to have a jacket and rain gear; the weather can change quickly.
