Ice Lake is an alpine lake in the San Juan mountains near Silverton, Colorado. At an elevation of 12,270 ft, the Ice Lake basin is surrounded by several peaks including Grant Peak, Fuller Peak, and Beatie Peak. The trail ascends almost 3,000 ft in under 4 miles, but the stunning views of the surrounding San Juans and the deep cobalt waters of the lake are well worth the effort.
