Nice trip report. That route from Rock Creek to Upper Boy Scout Lake sounds like a winner. I'm headed up that way this coming week. Hopefully we'll do the route via Crabtree Pass and Sky Blue Lake instead of the standard Guyot Pass route.

That's pretty awesome that your friend catches fish without using a rod. My #1 reason for not fishing on trips is that I'm not willing to carry the weight of fishing gear.
