Lost Creek Falls spur near Roosevelt Lodge: closure warning
Static NPS guide describes a 2.8-mile Lost Lake loop plus a 0.5-mile falls detour. These are background distances, not confirmation of current access.
Washout reported on the waterfall spur; no bypass verified.
Where to start
Tower Junction has a large lot and vault toilets. The Lost Lake route starts behind Roosevelt Lodge; the parking-to-lodge approach is additional.
Timing & water
Checked 2026-10-27: NPS notice dated 2026-04-09 says the falls trail is closed due to washout. Lost Lake loop is separately listed open; that does not establish waterfall access.
