Southwest yosemite info needed

I am interested in doing a 4 day 20 to 25 mile hike in the southern yosemite area in June. I'm interested in the Ostrander /Hart lake/ Buena Vista Lake area. I was wondering about heading to Ostrander and then cross country to Hart or Edson Lake to get away from the crowds for a day or 2 and then exiting to Buena vista and out at Chil falls. Any ideas as to when that area will be relatively snow free this season? How is the XC from Ostrander to Buena Vista (looks pretty straight forward on the topo)? any other loops or hikes in this area that would work and be less crowded? Any fishing info on Hart or Edson Lakes? Thanks in advance, Phil

Definitely not June, all those lakes are above 8000 ft, even if it melts out a bit, there will be a lot of flooded areas.
