Spruce Lake Connector and Spruce Lake Spur form a short spur trail that takes one to Spruce Lake that is about a quarter mile west of the southernmost of the Chain Lakes.

The trail to Spruce Lake branches off from Highline Trail #7094 in two places at the southern end of the southernmost Chain Lake - the trail starts of both Spruce Lake Connector and Spruce Lake Spur. These junctions with Highline Trail #7094 are in open meadows and are unmarked. Watch carefully here to make sure you take the path you intend to take.

Spruce Lake Connector is the northern branch off Highline Trail #7094. It follows the Chain Lake shoreline after leaving Highline Trail #7094. After 0.2 miles, Spruce Lake Connector ends in a muddy area at the southern tip of the Chain Lake, where it meets Spruce Lake Spur (the southern branch off Highline Trail #7094). Go right here onto Spruce Lake Spur to continue another 0.2 miles to the east end of Spruce Lake. Going left at this trail junction takes one back to Highline Trail #7094.
