Wait a minute. Don, did you pass Rob? You need to turn around and head North now. And look for Rob. Unless he ran down from Horseshoe Saddle to look at the lake, with my picture in hand, to compare. In which case he'e on his way back up to the PCT.

Ruddy Hill is a hill, Don. We are looking for a lake. Remeber, it's a connector trail.

Well, I thought I knew what trail it was, but with all this running around the Olallie area, I got a little winded and confused.

It wouldn't be Top Lake looking south would it?

How about Timber Lake #733. This is still a guess, for I am sure I haven't been where this trail is.

Timber Lake trail was a pretty good guess, but Rob get's the prize. It is Top Lake on Top Lake Trail. It's a nice place. Nice area on the south end of the lake. Trail leads up to Cigar Lake on the I-PCT.

That rocky high point is pretty dominant around there. The PCT loops by it.

Now you all do remember that the Skyline Trail first ran along Olallie-Monon-Horseshoe Lakes to Gibson and Breitenbush and didn't wander around the higher ground.

Is that rocky high point south of the lake?  I was there late last year and it is a nice place. 

Interesting stuff.....
