Little Lost Lake is a beautiful alpine lake located high up in the mountains. You can find it in Blaine County, Idaho, in the United States. This special lake is nestled within the Smoky Mountains, which are part of the huge Sawtooth National Forest.

Getting to Little Lost Lake is a bit of an adventure! There aren't any marked hiking trails that lead directly to it. However, the easiest way to reach it is by following forest road 170 until it ends. The lake sits just east of a mountain called Prairie Creek Peak. It's also close to several other cool lakes, including Smoky Lake, Big Lost Lake, and both Upper and Lower Norton lakes.
