upper kendrick creek

I am back to trying to put together a west to east tour of Northern Yosemite, and the crux of my plans seems to come on the second day of hiking.
I am ok with Class 3 scrambling.
First off, an area I am aiming to explore is the upper kendrick creek drainage. I would like to visit Edith Lake too, but the area above the falls that are about 1.5 miles N of Edith is of more interest to me.
After studying google earth, it looks Iffy to get around the falls. I see a possibility that looks interesting to bypass edith and the falls to get into Kendrick Creek.
This really is the Crux of the entire route and will decide if I start @ Kibbie Ridge or Hetch Hetchy.
So has anyone gone from Edith to upper Kendrick Creek?
