The Red Lake Trail #719 crosses the Pacific Crest Trail #2000 at this four-way junction on the south slope of Twin Peaks. Going south, the Red Lake Trail drops to Top Lake. Going north, it descends to Fork Lake and Sheep Lake. The PCT heads south past Cigar Lake from here. In the other direction, it goes east along a moraine rim with great views of Olallie Lake and Mount Jefferson.
