About Yankee Doodle Lake
Yankee Doodle Lake is a high-country freshwater lake on Rollins Pass in Roosevelt National Forest, reached by a rough seasonal mountain approach. It fits cold-water shore diving and backcountry planning more than a developed dive park, with trout around the lake and a quiet alpine setting. Plan for weather-sensitive access, limited support, and cold-water gear.
