Last year over the 4th of July weekend, I went to Rae Lakes starting from Onion Valley, over Kearsarge Pass (~11700') and Glen Pass (~11800). I realize this is north of where you're headed, but maybe gives you an idea of the surrounding area. Here are photos I took: Rae Lakes 2014.07.04 The only snow we encountered on the trail was on the north side of Glen Pass for a few hundred feet or so coming down the pass. This year seems like it will be drier than last.
have fun,
