The Aspen Trail #411 begins at Carr Lake Trailhead and ends at Carr Lake Trailhead. The Aspen trail forms "loop A", the red loop of the Carr Lake Trail System. After the trail passes the end of trail #412, it travels past an enclosed fence built to keep elk out of an area to protect young aspen trees. The General Crook Trail follows this trail briefly from Carr Lake Trailhead.
