**Elevation Change:** 1,510'
The spur trail to Spruce Lake is actually a hundred yards or so short of Fern Lake. This is a very pretty trail but can be difficult to follow at times, particularly a cairn marked section through a boulder field. The trail also passes through a few marshy spots with boardwalks.

Trailhead: Bear Lake
Via: Lake Helene
Distance: 3.6 mi
Elevation Change: 1,473' At Lake Helene, cross the outlet and follow the fairly well-defined trail along the west shore. As the trail rises it begins to fade and there are few cairns to mark the way. But route finding is not difficult, and there is little willow or krummholz to bar the way.
