For those coming from Summit County we can meet at the TJmax parking lot at 7:20am to carpool and leave promptly at 7:30am.  We will arrive at 8:30am at the trailhead to meet those coming from the front range.   

Depending on who signs up from the front range we can try to arrange a carpool location from that direction too.
