Lake Isabel Falls
The route can be confusing to follow, especially at the beginning which goes through an ATV park (thankfully, the Reiter 4x4 park is closed at this time.). The creek crossings on this hike were a bit tricky given the ice, on the rocks and logs, but we managed. Near the top, pink and orange tags mark the boot path that leaves the road and parallels the right side of May creek. Navigating the boot path took some time as much of it is covered in downed trails and debris.
We made it to the base of Isabel falls, which was pretty stunning! Scramble up the right side of the falls to reach the lake. A more detailed trip report, and GPS route is on our blog, located here:
