Hi Everyone! Just joined after years of reading What's your advice for experienced, bust rusty out-of-towners (all 17 yrs+)? Right now I'm planning to hike in from Highline Trail trailhead near Mirror Lake and set up camp in Naturalist Basin to do day hikes from there. Is this a good idea? Any strong advice for our campsite location? Will it be crowded there in mid-July? Will we wish we had pushed deeper, away from foot traffic? Is there enough to keep us busy for 5 days?
Also, we'll be driving in from sea level a week before the start date, with plans to do short, daily hikes in the Wasatch area leading up to this trip. Any other advice for acclimating to altitude, etc? Thanks for your help!
