I agree with Brookie that that isn't too early to go. It just depends what you want to do. If this is primarily a multi-day backpacking trip into the high country I might wait a couple of weeks. If you're planning to camp from a parked vehicle, possible move around stream to stream, take day hikes and fish streams then it's a great time to go. Tends to be fewer people around before the Fourth of July. Dry fly fishing can be great on many streams that time of year. Easy for someone who has never fly fished before to quickly catch a lot of fish. For what it's worth that time of year my favorite on the south slope is the Yellowstone and on the north slope is the Henry's Fork.
