Has anyone run the trail from Marble to Crystal this year? A friend told me last year part of it was shut down for construction, but I haven't been able to figure out where she was to know if that would impact me. I don't want to run the Devil's Punchbowl or the rough parts of Schofield Pass, but it looks like I could go that way and cut over to Lead King Basin. Thoughts?

 

ive run it a few times now. All is open and clear. going up there this weekend to do lead king again. I would suggest doing the entire lead king loop. very nice ride with steller views. im lucky to live in the area so i am there alot!

 

Thanks. What time are you running Lead King? We're leaving Denver tomorrow AM and hitting some ghost towns between us and Marble, probably running LK Sunday AM.

 

i will be in marble late morning once we get some food. Sister is in town form Chicago so i am taking them up and around. I will be in the RG 2 dr if you see me!

 

For anyone who's interested, the Lead King Basin trail to the Crystal trail back to Marble is a great run. A few narrow spots where oncoming traffic would suck, but definitely a trail worth repeating. There is a decent creek crossing maybe axle deep, so beware heavy rains.
