Arriving at the tarn southwest of Windy Devil.  Castle Peak on the right; the Serrate Ridge descends dramatically all the way to the left frame line.  Descending toward Castle Peak leads one to Shallow Lake, past Scree Lake, and eventually, Quiet Lake.  I met a couple as I was leaving Scoop Lake who had come that route from Born Lakes.  They were making extremely good time!  I know from experience.
