you can usually camp by trillium lake (prolly spelled it wrong), it is a sweet place to stay usually, but there still may be to much snow there right now

You can also go just about anywhere off the old access road.

/\ Probably your best bet.

Trillium lake is gorgeous, but I've never camped there...I'm assuming you have to pay(?)

Airstrip is legit. Did that multiple summers in a row couple years back and it was an awesome time. It's free too and lake trillium is a short drive down the road. Def recommend it.
