The Nolan Lake trail begins at Nolan Creek Road #418 and ends at Nolan Lake. This wooded trail begins as an old mining road up through aspen, spruce and fir forest. At a 1/4 mile, the trail passes through a meadow and the upper town of Fulford, and a series of old log cabins, just before it crosses Nolan Creek and heads east up White Quail Gulch. The trail is variable with gentle slopes and steep sections as it travels over rocks, roots, and wet meadows. At the end, it descends to the picturesque Nolan Lake.
