Just getting around to this because I may have an opportunity to visit Amphitheater Basin (via a much more conventional route—Bishop Pass, Dusy Basin, Le Conte Canyon) this September, assuming that the entire state hasn't burned up and/or dried up and blown away by then. Thanks! Looks like a wonderful area!

Thanks for bumping this up, Taboose to Dumbell Lakes has been on my list, but I have not done much research. I like the idea of a loop through Amphitheater to the JMT and back to Taboose.

Yes, thanks for bumping this, but now I want to go there and I'm already over my allotment for trips planned this year. I can't be adding more when I need to cut at least one week off. :)
