We had originally planned to go to Peggy's Pond but due to a late start, some of our group not feeling so great and the exposure factor of the cutoff trail to Peggy's we ended up opting to sleep at cathedral pass instead.
There are several good impacted flat spots to camp, both on the east side of the "last tarn" on cathedral pass trail and above it, at the true pass.
Due the ferociousness of the mosquitos we opted to camel water up and camp away from the water. We picked a side trail to the left of the pass (south, away from cathedral rock) and wandered until we found a nice spot. (There are really only 2 good tent spots this way, but more to the right (north).
Views are somewhat obscured by trees here, but still nice views of Daniel and across the valley towards tuck and robin lakes.
Some of us still got quite a few bites, even camping away from water. It's bug season!
Of note: we felt fine filtering water from the largest/last tarn, but it is not flowing stream water so if you are picky about such things you might not enjoy camping in this area.
