Waterbody Information

Size:	6.2 acres
Elevation:	6292 ft
Directions:	Access to Dalton Lake can most easily be obtained by taking USFS Rd #250 (Trout Creek Road) from Superior, MT. From USFS Rd #250, there are two options to hike. One option is to hike USFS Trail #171 to Heart Lake, then Trail #175 past Pearl Lake, to a saddle between Pearl and Dalton Lakes. From the top of this saddle, one can see and hike to Dalton Lake on an established, but non-designated trail. The other option is to take Trail #738 (Stateline National Recreation Trail) east-southeast, along the Idaho border, from the top of Hoodoo Pass (USFS Rd # 250) and descend into the lake. Both routes are between 4.5 and 5 miles hiking distance, with moderate difficulty.
