Beautiful, but strenuous hike with long, steep ascents/descents, some through primal forest. Not as difficult as guidebooks describe, but not to be taken lightly. The upper lake is both the biggest and most scenic with stunning views of sun/moon rising on the Sawtooths. No biting insects at all at the end of September. Good fishing! The solitude and serenity were delicious!
