You have been given a lot of good answers. But be aware that if you are coming in the middle of June much of the high country will still be under snow and ice. Also many of the rivers and streams may be swollen with snow melt.
Be flexible and watch the reports for the area you want. If it looks like a lot of run off then plan on some spring creeks or lakes that are open.
You might get a good idea of the conditions by looking at the reports from places like : http://www.silver-creek.com/den/
or even look at the web cam in Stanley and you can see how much of the snow is melted and guesstimate how high you can hike
