Will see about the dates soon. Hoping to do it earlier than April if possible but that might not be for me. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

In your other thread you mention a week long trip, how hard are the trails your thinking of doing?


On a scale from 1-5 with 5 being the hardest...
Rubicon: 4-5 in spots but most have bypasses.
Fordyce: 4-5 or maybe 5
Dusy Ersham: 5

Also considering swamp lake or maybe other hard core trails in the central Sierras. Still planning this out so keep watching this tread. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
