Altho either day works, the 3rd might be better for me than the 4th. But let's see how it goes as we get closer to the date. I'll be on vacation and should be pretty flexible as a couple of other things work their way out.

I don't think there's a downfall to running any trail/pass in either direction (except w black bear pass in telluride, of course)

mmcan, where will you be staying at? Will probably have to spend the night in Gunnison unless as CB is about 31/2 hours for us.

Hey Giant, I'll have an offload trailer so we had planned on camping above CB along Slate River Rd. Can meet you in CB or Almont (not sure where trailhead is of the top of my head) or someplace else that works for us all.

Did you guys decide on a day yet?? I am not going to be able to make it the third. Can do the 4th and will probably run the trail regardless on the 4th. Plan on camping up on Indy pass afterwards. Hopefully it works out, if not I will catch you guys next time
