I was planning on going up that way tomorrow as well. My Uncle in his Jeep and myself were planning on running the Gold Lakes trail (I think #27) out of that same book. I liked the Poker Flat trail but the 8 hour driving time added to the 2.5 hours just to get to the trailhead kept me from going on that one.

Unfortuneatley my Uncle backed out on me due to the storm and the current closure of I-80 going east. Would have been fun.
