There's a pretty well defined trail that veers off to the left just before you get to Round Valley Campground (when your heading west after the Round Valley Loop intersection). Could be where they went awry, there are no signs near it and it's not a defined trail on the Wilderness Map. Kinda tough to visualize without a pic, but anyone else know where I'm talking about?
I climbed a mountain, then I turned around.

I'm pretty sure thats just a trace trail for the Monkey Flower camp site. It seems these guys were found up towards the Tamarack Meadow above the Tamarack campgroud.
