Hi Charlie Horse,
Yes the larch are unusual. They have needles, but are deciduous, the needles turn a golden yellow in the fall, then drop off. The larch color season lasts for a week or two.
I've packed water for a 'dry camp' for one night, but multiple days of water would add up fast.
I did meet other people on the trail, one or two people on several days, but some days I saw no one.
We can get rain or snow in our mountains this time of year. Weather on this trip was good, first 3 days mostly sunny, a few high clouds; the next two days were cloudy with a few sun breaks. Saturday on the hike out it was cloudy with a few light rain showers. I usually don't go unless the weather forecast is fairly good
