Thanks for this guide. We just completed the trip and the guide was very helpful. A couple of additions: We did the hike in to Circlet lake and return from Circlet lake as a loop. You can hike the east loop via Battleship Lake and Kwai lake and return on the route outlined. Makes a nice change of scenery. We camped at Kwai lake and then left our gear at Circlet lake to take the final ascent without the overnight gear. No swimming allowed at Kwai lake as it is a closed lake (at least according to the Ranger). Helen Mackenzie and Battleship lake are both good for swimming in early September. Circlet lake levels were a bit low.
