Ever since I went up Wildcat Pt. in 2008 and got a REALLY good look at Falls Ridge I've
had the idea to traverse the thing. Got my chance this last weekend.
Coupled with "Murphy Ridge" and May Lake Mystery Trail we ended up with a nice loop
we lots of cross country and lots of solitude.
Falls Ridge is anything but an easy ridge and was only able to complete the western half.
(we rarely go with a fixed plan anyway so that's always OK)
Here's a set of photos. Hopefully it does the place justice.

For those who don't look at sets here's two:
Falls Ridge Eastern Portion:
Old Dude Tree:
Note to basilbop: Did not explore Cathedral Creek. Wanted to stay high and camp on
ridges and away from water as much as possible. Plan on going back and doing as
much as can of eastern half and exploring the creek some... eventually completing the
entire ridge and hiking the entire creek.
