From the northern junction, the Isherwood Trail winds westward around the northern shore of North Heavenly Twin Lake, through a mosaic of old forest and ponds bordered with wildflowers early in the season. Climbing a scenic ridge, the trail then meanders along the western side of Isherwood Lake before returning to the Sky Lakes Trail. Minimum impact visitation is required to preserve this fragile and primitive wilderness environment.
