This is not Ibantik Lake-- this is a smaller lake you'll encounter after traversing The Notch, but before your final descent to Ibantik proper.

Description
This is a well-marked trail from the trailhead, and you'll hike on the Notch Mountain Trail #81 for this out and back hike. The first mile you'll wander past Lilly Pad Lakes then up a section which is mellow save one small section that will get the heart going. Once you arrive at Wall Lake, head east across the bridge over the outlet and follow the trail which is well defined. You'll climb above Wall Lake on some switchbacks which reach Hope Lake. Follow the trail on the east side of Hope, and it will wind your way up to the pass. Follow the trail off the pass, passing Lake Lovenia, and then you'll descend switchbacks to Ibantik Lake.After you have taken in the scenery at Ibantik, simply retrace your steps back to the trailhead.
