The Ninja Lake Loop offers a stunning high mountain ride through alpine terrain just north and west of Gin Peak. A hidden alpine lake makes for a great summer swimming hole, and much of the circuit is above the tree line in alpine terrain. The ride is moderate overall and a great way to escape other crowded areas.
