    Island Lake is a very beautiful lake in beautiful surroundings. The Gunsight is a glorious place to pop by nearby, and paddling on Salmon River - Yankee Fork is so much fun. Island Lake gets very little precipitation; of all the months in a year December is the one with the most snow, and July is when it's the driest. This lake is so wonderful.
