Description
Follow the Lost Creek Trail to the ridge, gaining most of the elevation on the way. After gaining the ridge, the trail heads east and evens out, but is often somewhat overgrown. After a little more than a mile on the ridge, Round Lake is clearly visible off a northern side trail. The lake has lots of room for tents plus a pit toilet on the west side. Lost Creek Ridge Trail continues along the ridge to reach other lakes, but gets even more overgrown. Eventually, the trail ends at a junction with the White Chuck Trail #643.
