Of my trips to the Winds, I would say Island Lake, Titcomb basin, Indian Basin, and climbing Fremont are absolute highlights. See my trip report here:

Be sure to carry plenty of water for Fremont. I've climbed it twice and have ran short both times. It is very exposed to the sun. If you have any questions about route finding let me know. I may be able to help.
I saw on metalbackpacker's website where the route around Alpine Lakes is tricky. I've never descended over the east side of Indian Pass but that would be quite a wild area to explore.
Look forward to reading a trip report when you get back.
Have a great trip!

Navigaitng through the Alpine Lakes Area is probably my biggest concern right now... hopefully we get in and out with out to much problem.
