Climbing to Gold Ridge from Indian Creek

Parking at Deer Camp BenM and I went up to Maverick Saddle, down the Mad River canyon to Pine Flats, took Mad River-Tillicum-Indian Creek roads and a steep cross-country climb up to Gold Ridge, up the ridge to Sugarloaf Peak, then Entiat Summit Road back to Maverick Saddle and down to the car.
Lots of cougar activity in Mad River canyon.
