Lamarck Lakes is a short, easy hike in California's John Muir Wilderness, within the White Mountain Ranger District of Inyo National Forest. The trail is about half a mile long, with a total elevation gain of about 80 feet, and it makes an out-and-back trip from the low point at 10,817 feet to the high point at 10,916 feet. The route is on natural surface, and horses are allowed. It is not an accessible trail, according to the Forest Service's accessibility status. The land is managed by the Forest Service, and the trail is open year-round. Lamarck Col lies about 0.2 miles away, and Grass Lake Outlet is about a mile off. North Lake Campground and Sabrina Campground are both within about 2 miles, so the hike pairs easily with an overnight stay.
