I am looking for trails to run in the Crested Butte/ Aspen are next week(May 20-25) I assume most everything is still closed but maybe you all have some suggestions.
 
With the snow fall this year, dont think things will be open in that area for a while. Our club usualy goes down there in late July to run some of the passes, but we probably wont get to do it until August...... I havent explored that area to mutch, maybe some of the other guy's could give a better answer...........
 
naaahhh... I don't think so. we had a ton of snow up here this year. I don't think Kebler Pass (from HWY 133 to CB) is even open yet. Coming from Aspen? You won't get over Pearl Pass until August/September, maybe Schofield Pass in July. Gonna be in Gunnison? there is a play area known as Hartman Rocks... aka Little Moab. But if your looking for mountain passes, you better wait.

Barry,

You take your rig over Pearl Pass? That's one of my favorite trails. ;p

I haven't taken it over since my rig "grew up".... what a great trail.

the snow is melting quick, we went down in the Black Canyon yesterday on the 4-wheelers, the Gunnison river was UP :doh: ...... a warm one this week.

... Most of that pass is pretty exposed, except for some tree/shaded areas on the Taylor side. Wouldn't be suprised if they're trying to get that open

Barry, any idea of how mutch snow CB has gotten for the year? Heard a while ago San Juans were at 130%, and front range around 117%. Just wondering how the years gonna go for us :) .
