Basic Directions
The trailhead is located on the north side of Highway 88 near Silver Lake, about one-half mile east of Plasse's turnoff and one mile west of Kay's Resort. The trail climbs steadily through open granite and timber for three-quarters of a mile where you will enjoy spectacular views of Silver Lake and Thunder Mountain. The trail then descends to Shealor Lake.
