I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Re: Need info
Have been to Red and White Lake on several trips and Grinnel Lake once. From the former looked up at the north side route choices. Although rated as a class 2 route, there is considerable class 3 on both sides of Red and White Lake one could easily wander into. Did not like the possible choice above the east shores because some was steep metamorphic talus and scree off of Red and White Mountain. Such geology tends to be rather unstable and unpleasant. Above the west shores are some steep ledges one might work past the cliff areas. There are always some narrow bands of snow to negotiate and if firm as in the morning would not be pleasant. Falling on either side of the lake could result in a slide into the cold steep shored talus lake. Uncertain one could see that route coming down from above. Was a reason 16 years ago we carrying big packs instead chose to cross via Bighorn Pass and Shout of Relief Pass even though that is longer and a bit more up and down. Note that route is all class 2 though tedious in parts. I have some Kodachrome slides zoomed into the route areas.
