Great report Travis. With the narrative, stats, GPS tracks, photos and video it's like being there with you - except for the small matter of the physical exertion of course.
To anyone interested i took the 'unmaintained' portion of the trail last weekend (Nov 29, 2014) and it was very straightforward. I only had to stop a couple times to make sure i was taking the right turn but generally speaking the trail is on par with the maintained trail in all aspects except its width - highly recommend wearing pants! I hate pants but would say its more than necessary on this portion of the trail. If anyone knows the exact length of this portion id be very interested in knowing. thanks!

Re: Well donethanks for your comments, definitely is a nice route to hit these peaks, and at 20 miles, is fairly reasonable.
