    Speaking of Cottonwood Pass, have they completed their paving that closed the West side yet?

    Thanks, guess the possibility of a quick Pearl Pass run this weekend is out. Yet another defer until next year I guess.

    Oh, according to this it will be essentially closed in 2018 (Middle section of it anyways which means no through).

    https://flh.fhwa.dot.gov/projects/co/cottonwood/documents/cottonwood-pass-2018.pdf

    OOps, this says it will be open but expect major delays


    CR 306 will remain open to public


    traffic (with delays) up to the Avalanche Trailhead.

    Lots of dust and custom dents, Check Build
    Tyalor - Peal is a sweet combo, but Pearl can be run without. Not sure what cottonwood has to do with running pearl. :notsure:

    Just a quick way for me to get there via 285 (Without the added time of going to Gunnison to head North), could run I70 to Aspen and loop them too.

    Question is now how much snow did they get?

    So, @CharlieCafe & @Coop68 can I entice you guys into a little further away adventure (Pearl/ Taylor Pass loop) this weekend?

    Those trails look amazing and now I really want to run them. I just don't know if I'll have the time this weekend.
