I am heading there tonight and was wondering if there's any update on the condition especially for Ice Lake, Indian Trail Ridge, Stony pass, P Basin, etc. Depending on the condition I may have to revise my plan (hopefully not too much).

Thanks a lot!

Can't really answer your question, but a lot of folks (myself included) are heading that way this weekend as these areas should be at their peak then.
Note that a monsoonal weather pattern has settled here now with resultant rain showers and lightning storms nearly every afternoon.

I won't be able to get down there until next weekend so I look forward to seeing what you get and what things are like. Don't come back without pics! :wink:

Indian Trail Ridge is definitely worth a visit now. While it isn't quite as good as last year, it's still worth the effort to check out. I was just there yesterday. Unfortunately, the monsoon weather fell apart and left me with sunny, contrasty lighting for my evening visit. I'll post a couple of shots in the wildflower report anyway.
