| Size | 8.7 acres |
| Elevation | 6253.0 ft. |
| Directions | Access to Lower Bonanza Lake can easily be obtained by either of two routes. One is by taking USFS Road #320 (Cedar Creek Road) from Superior, Montana for approximately 19 miles. Turn right on USFS Road #7763 near the Oregon Lakes trailhead. Take Road #7763 north 1.7 miles to USFS Trail #616. Two miles up the trail; you will find Lower Bonanza Lake. The trail is moderately difficult with some steep stretches. The other option is to continue on USFS Road #320 to the Stateline National Recreation Trail (#738) and hike 1.5 miles northwest to Trail #616, then hike 0.8 miles down Trail #616 to the lake. This route will have the advantage of being well traveled, and is relatively flat for the first two-thirds of the hike. |
