I didn't do the whole loop; I did an out and back from Salmo Pass to Shedroof Mountain.
Conditions were smoky, it was warm, and very buggy (but not as bad as the rest of the weekend).
Flowers are in transition. Not much bear scat seen on the trail, but there was some over by Shedroof Mountain. I carried bear spray and kept my food in scent proof bags, just in case.
Absolutely beautiful area -- I would love to visit again. It reminded me of some areas I've visited in the Cascades.
