Description
Starting from the intersection with Taggart Lake Trail, the Bradley Lake Trail skirts past both Taggart Lake and Bradley Lake as it consistently offers up spectacular views of the Teton Range. The trail travels through thick pine and fir forest and prominently displays the sharp rise in topography to west across calm, shimmering lake water. This trail is an excellent, less-traveled alternative to the Jenny Lake area trails if users are looking to get similar views.
