Isabelle Lake Hike 8/06/2018
This is a hike of 6.65 miles from the trailhead of the Jean Lunning trail.  We
intersected the Pawnee Pass trail at Long Lake to go to Isabelle Lake.  It was a
vertical rise from 10451' to 10931' of 480'.  This is a spectacular hike.
The trailhead is labeled the
NIWOT Cutoff Trail.  This is a
shortcut from Brainerd Lake to
Long Lake.
There were wildflowers
everywhere
We come to the split to Pawnee
Pass Trail or to Isabelle Glacier
Trail.  We follow the trail along
Isabelle Lake.
The view to the east includes
the outlet of Isabelle Lake.
Crossing the outlet from Long
Lake.
At 2.6 miles from the trailhead
we cross this stream.
The wildflowers were
spectacular.
