Gorgeous Lake

I spent one night here with my sister and friend and we had the whole place to ourselves. There are 3 campsites that are all close together on the beach at the foot of the lake. Just up the hill is a vault toilet (bring your own toilet paper!) and further along the lake is the food preparation area with a pole setup to hang your food. In order to get back to this campsite you can park at Bowman Lake and take the Quartz Loop trails to get back there. The northern route is a bit shorter but involves a steady climb (1500 ft) up a ridge. The southern route is shorter but has a lot of downed trees as of Aug 2017. This campground is in Glacier National Park so naturally the hikes, surrounding area, and campground all have gorgeous views. One little tip, bring bug spray and bear spray. Overall, I love this campground and would go back in a heartbeat.
