I looked at Bob's write up and lo, we were the party there the week before, whose names show up in the photo of the register 
There is definitely a use trail out of the campground. I don't recall how distinct it is up to the big talus field but I don't think it is trivial. If you can find the cairned route across the talus, it is pretty good, so worth looking. I would have thought this is an old Shoshone trail as they summered up in the area and there are a few remains of summer dwellings out on the ridge. There's trail from the north end of the talus field down to the saddle, and then you're pretty much on your own. If you can get up to Mahogany, it's a good place to go, but not for the naive.
For bonus points, start at the Charcoal Kilns instead
