Great to read that you and your friend had an enjoyable trip. TR and photo's
are marvelous, as is the additional information that you provided, which will
make others experienced members visiting this area much better and
safer, thanks.
You did not mention anything about seeing any Indian Paintbrush on the
southern (southwestern) side of 1000 Is Lake, or any wildflowers in the
meadow on the far western side of Little Garnet Lake, so I will assume this
was a bad year for them in that location.
There were flowers and paintbrush in both those locations, but things are already beginning to dry out some. Above the ponds at the western end of Garnet there was one healthy inlet stream but many other dry ones, so my guess is that the flowers are past their most intense moment. Even so, the SW shoreline and hillside of Garnet was fairly impressive.
