Yes, beautiful, but also can be a skeeter hell hole this time of the year, be prepared.
I like Table Meadows - wonderful place, after the mosquitoes are all gone.

Yeah, I'm thinking I might actually just go to Moose and back out Alta instead of over to Pear/Watchtower. Hopefully breezy enough around Moose or to keep mosquitos at bay!

Looks like you have a fantastic route planned out. The only advice I can really give you is to avoid Pear Lake like the plague. Instead, camp up the Marble Fork drainage just a little ways beyond the Ranger Station. It's absolutely beautiful country, the odds of seeing anyone are low, and at this point in the season there will be a few truly amazing swimming holes.
love those layers of exfoliation on those gentle sloped slabs above the ranger station and the beautiful sheets of water
