Update: Ok, I think I found the problem. Now when I have internet access I checked the Google Maps and appears that Gaia Maps were not accurate. The trail to the lake is there but it’s 1/4 mile off from Gaia maps. I tried this trail on my first attempt but it’s blocked by two large boulders...

Current status: could not reach Tamarack Lake
Details:
This weekend I tried to reach Tamarack Lake from Lake Siskiyou area, was following your route. Everything went well till I reached location marked red on a map, it’s actually a pretty nice camp site (lots of trash though)...
