This hike will likely take 7 hours so we need a relatively early start.  Those coming from Summit County will meet at 6:00am at the Frisco Kayak Parking lot at exit 201.  We will leave promptly at 6:05am.  We will carpool to the Vail Village parking structure to meet those coming from Eagle County.   We will take the Hiker Express bus at 7:00am from the Vail Transportation Center to the Booth Falls trailhead.   Anyone meeting us in Vail needs to catch this bus.  There is NO parking at the Booth Falls trailhead.

It will likely be at least 3pm before we return to Frisco.

This is a difficult hike.  If you have not done a very recent hike with 3kft of gain and 11 miles please do not sign up for this hike.  

Well behaved dogs that are kept leashed are allowed on this hike.  Please let me know if you plan to bring a dog, whether you can drive with a dog, and if you need to be in a car without a dog.
