     This lake is so wonderful. Golden Lake is right by the Dinwoody Trail. But wait, there's more to do near Golden Lake. Why not explore nearby Phillips Creek while you're here at Golden Lake, and why not camp at Circle Up Camper Court Shop if you're here at Golden Lake. If you come at the right time of year, Wind River offers some great whitewater; Burro Flat is a perfect location here at Golden Lake.
Golden Lake is pretty arid regularly; throughout June this
 
   area sees the most rain while February is mostly the driest month. Golden Lake is a beautiful lake in the Wind River Range. So much amusing stuff to do here in the Wind River Range, too great to be true. Whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then we recommend Wind River - East Fork, and do take a hike on the Ink Wells Trail.

Double Lake
Fish it with royal wolfs being stipped on top of the water, big cuttthroats will slam it...

Ross Lake Trail
In four days four of us caught 13 fish over 20 inches and 27 fish overall, none of which were less than 14 inches.  Campsites are plentiful and established.  Great views of other mountain lakes beautiful sunsets and sunrises. The trail is very nice and well marked the entire way. All the climbing is worth every minute once you see the lake....Ross Lake wasn't worth the trip. Horrible fishing and rough trail. I'd recommend other destinations over Ross Lake. Lots of the forest in the area has burned and is not very scenic....

Suicide Lake
16 miles away
Had some excellent fishing for brook & cutthroat trout at Suicide Lake in August '05. The fishing was so hot I caught 2 at once....

Triangle Lake
17 miles away
This lake is almost impossible to get to. I have been within two miles of the lake and can't get to it because of the dangers that surround it. There are cliffs and the trail to the lake is a slippery waterfall....

Hay Pass Trail
18 miles away
I backpacked over Hay Pass (from Boulder Lake Trailhead to to Golden Lakes) last July 25. Easy ascent to pass except for stream crossings, trail gets faint for about 1/4 mi.above Dennis Lake (quite a view down to the lake. At the outlet of the unnamed lake (Beth Lake???) below the pass on the west side (at head of North Fk Boulder Cr.) water was high & swift, so I routed eastward around to the head of the lake crossing 2 inlet streams where they braid apart. through thick willows- a slow deal, but better than hip-deep swift water at the outlet. Great cutthroat fishing at Victor Lake (on fish to 19) during a hail storm. Guess the fish thought the hail was a swarm of bugs. Saw nobody else from Victor lk. to Golden Lks and back (3 days). Not the most spectacular scenery in the range (peaks are mostly round-topped, not like the jagged peaks to the north or south), but no people and great fishing (Golden Lakes had lots of 14 goldens but they were not biting- typical of goldens). Going in again this July, only farther this time, north of Golden Lakes. Anybody going that way?...
