I hiked the Iceberg - Cecile - Minaret route last week (north to south). As others have mentioned, the route between Iceberg and Cecile is a use trail. Easy to follow, but crumbly, so expect that some of your steps will include a bit of sliding as the scree gives way. Hiking poles were very helpful. Other than that there are no particular challenges at this time (no snow or ice).
This is a very scenic route and just adventurous enough if this is one of your first forays off the beaten path.

Thanks Steve! Yes its my first trip in this area. I think I picked a good one!
Thanks for the input. Cant wait to post some pictures here.....been a great source of information with super helpful people!!
Well I'm back from my trip! And it was fantastic!!! Thank you all for the great info I received on this site.
I can tell you that my favorite place to camp on the entire 5 day trip was on the north shore of Iceberg Lake. Simply stunning and completely isolated. Far enough away from everyone.
Here are some of the pics.
