Trail description

From the Long Lake Trailhead at Brainard Lake the Pawnee Pass Trail passes Long Lake and Lake Isabelle, then switchbacks above the trees to Pawnee Pass on the Continental Divide at 3,832 m. About 14.3 km out and back with some 640 m of climbing; the top half is exposed, so start early to avoid afternoon thunderstorms.
