Yes, I was there in 2009. Unfortunately, lots of beetle-killed trees, but the Encampment River and the surrounding meadows are beautiful. The beetle has pretty much killed most of the lodgepole pine in all the Rockies. You learn to ignore it and enjoy the parts that are still beautiful (higher altitude).
