I didn't make it to the lakes on the east creek trail. Locals told me to stay close to the trailhead when I went to that trailhead it was my last ditch effort.

Looks like its going to be early season Holy Cross Wilderness for me.

I saw some dandy bulls in the rahway wilderness 2 years ago on a similar hunt above treeline.
