Decisions help

Looks like the skeeters are gonna be in force up here (Oregon) until December so we're heading to our favorite range of light. Researched HST for ideas, we're OLD so we can go mid week AFTER Labor day (yea) but try to limit it to 5/7 miles/day. Like to set base camp, away from the crowds, and day trip to pretty places (I leave fly rods at home, 100+ days is enough) sooo..
Kibbie Lk. The ranger said , "Road's fine and the gate is closed in December, that's not what I've read here so can anyone give us info? Also would lake 7952 NE of Sachse springs be a nice camp area if we extend a bit and do Kibbie ridge instead?
Meis -Dardanelles lks area, many people after labor day?
Waca - Pyramid lks, when does the shuttle shut down? Topo! and High Sierra maps make the cross country look reasonable but Peggy doesn't like steep stuff (where you can reach straight out and touch the granite)
Any suggestions/info greatly appreciated
btw, we've already done 5 lakes basin, baltimore/beyers lks area and N Desolation so looking for new areas in N Sierras.
thanks
