The trail to Revett Lake is fairly easy, with only a few easy slopes to climb. The trail is narrow and leads you through a lush forest prior to emerging at a granite mountain slope and magnificent views. From here, the trail plunges back into a forested area where you'll enjoy the coolness of dense foliage, ferns, a creek, and a neat cascading waterfall.
Thompson Pass is closed from Thanksgiving- late April.
