Crooked Lakes Trail Hike

Sharon, Jack and I hiked the Crooked Lakes Trail in the Grouse Lakes Area. We covered almost seven miles round trip from the Carr Lake trailhead over the Round Lake and Crooked Lakes trails to Penner Lake in about 3 hours and 35 minutes. This is the farthest that we have ever hiked with Jack. We ate a late lunch on the shores of Penner Lake. Although it took us almost two hours to get to the trailhead, it was definitely worth it. There are a number of other trails in the area that we might explore in the future.
