Penner by the back door

Fall Creek Mountain from Round Lake Trail

Taking a break at Penner
 Six of us including one new hiker went from the Carr/Feeley trailhead up the south side of Island Lake past several lakes including Long, Round and Milk and some lake "has beens" that seem to have disappeared.  We stopped for lunch at Shotgun Lake and then proceeded up past Upper Rock Lake and on to Penner Lake.  From there back to Island Lake and down to the cars. 

The hike was a 12 mile counter-clockwise loop.  The trails were well-maintained with little climbing over logs, etc.  The elevation gain was only about 1550(+) feet.  Beautiful weather and no smoke - the 12 miles were easy enough.  We saw no one else the whole day until we got back to Island Lake.
