    Eric - You going to be in town the weekend of July 11/12? Family is out of town for a week, so I'm trying to plan some mountain time. Doing Leadville Marathon Saturday morning, then looking for an option Sunday. Thought I might try and take you up on that offer for a trip through the Maroon Bells: nicholasaclark at hotmail
