'Lake Catherine'
Trailhead: North Inlet
Via: Lake Nanita
Distance: 12.8 mi
Elevation Change: 1,800'
Cross the outlet from Lake Nanita and follow the game trail along the lake shore. Head southeast up the slope to a saddle about 600' above Nanita. At the top of the saddle, head downhill, starting almost due south before turning to the east. Lake Catherine is at the bottom of this slope. Note that the elevation change is net; you'll be climbing much more than that!
