Hiking
Located between Basalt and Leadville, Colorado, the Fryingpan Lakes are nestled at the foothills of several two 13,000 foot peaks (Mount Oklahoma and Deer Mountain) and a 14er (Mount Massive). The lakes themselves are a little over 11,000 feet high. The lakes are often fished, but most people stop at the first lake (making the upper two lakes more private).
