Kendall Katwalk
We hiked to Ridge Lake, about a mile past the Katwalk. The trail is in great shape. We found lots of sweet huckleberries, and water is available in several streams along the climb. The lake is a beautiful one that I had not made it to before, although there seemed to be a lot of bees there.
We saw a surprisingly large number of day hikers for a weekday, perhaps because it was forecast to begin raining the next day (we actually got drizzle in the afternoon) and continue for nine months. Kudos to the backpacker, perhaps a PCT through-hiker, who we saw just a few minutes up the trail as we were finishing; as he ascended he was eating ice cream out of a half-gallon tub.
