I did the clockwise loop down thru the GCT starting/ending at White Wolf about 8 years back. There is an excellent little spot just past the Return Creek bridge where you can camp. It's not even a 100 ft from the creek so technically you'd be too close for camping….

I did the Ten Lakes loop Memorial Day weekend and while the north side of Tuolumne peak did have significant snow, with a GPS and map and compass, and some courage when walking on steep snow, it wasn't impossible. I am new here, so I hope it isn't against the rules to link to HST. My trip report is there – http://www.highsierratopix.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=11036
You mentioned getting confused by old trails in the May Lake area. In some cases, those are the remainder of the Great Siera Wagon Road, which became the Tioga Road, which later got straightened. Some of those pieces are well over 100 years old.
