Good question Michael, but I'm not sure I can help. I know the lake loop near Siligo peak is quite popular. The Caribou basin is also likely popular. Both those areas are also really pretty though.

Looking to backpack next September. What is the least traveled trail?

Thanks Alice! Yup, that's the area the photo is from. Specifically, that photo is from near the top of Sawtooth Ridge looking towards Sapphire Lake. On the other side of the ridge looking north is Caribou Lake and the Caribou basin. Take care!

Amazing post and amazing place, just went there last weekend thanks to you guys.
It has now become surprisingly crowded, not enough camping sites for all the groups. The rangers mentioned they may limit the number of visas in the future due to recent increased attendance. May be your post inspired a lot of people! :)

Thanks Caitlin! These pictures are from a trip in late July. Snow can linger high up in these mountains into August some years, so it’s always good to check current conditions before setting out. Happy hiking!
