This is a off trail x-country route made by my uncle. The map is approximate and people using this map will need experience following off trail routes. The important thing to remember is to keep Scotch creek to your left as you head out and avoid getting into the Side creak drainage. Simply follow the ridge to return. Stunning views of Mt. Shasta, Shastina and Mt. Eddy can be seen from the top of the ridge and this is a good place to have lunch. Numerous campsites also exist for those who want to make this an overnight stay. Enjoy this hidden Northern California gem.
