Amazing but Difficult Backpacking
We attempted four pass loop in July of 2017, but were unable to get over the first peak because of altitude (from living in LA) and just being out of shape.
We camped in 3 locations and had a blast though. The last location on the way back was near the lake at the beginning of the loop. It was a huge site with space for 3 of our tents and opened up to a beautiful field where we found some frisky deer.
I'd love to come back here to camp again. The snow was still bad enough in July for 2017 after a pretty heavy season and that made it more difficult to get to the first peak. A little later in the summer would have been better.
