Great site to get to after a short (semi difficult) hike. If you want to head off into other parts of the backcountry (or are coming back) this is a great calm and serene area with fantastic scenery. The lake isn't too cold if you want to rinse or just cool off. Plenty of tree coverage for both some shade and to hang your food. Plenty of flat smooth areas to set you your tent (or a group of tents). Campsites can be right by the monarch, giving you a fantastic view at night or first thing in the morning.
