    check this out - good map of the water diversion tunnel and ditch system. The Hoosier Pass tunnel into Montgomery is the 3rd of 3 tunnels. Its a bit confusing as there are multiple crystal lakes in the area. But the Hoosier tunnel itself starts at the small little Crystal lake on the north side of the divide. but the system as a whole start up by Peak 10 in Crystal Creek and its associated Crystal Lakes.

    Look'n forward to a great day tomorrow!

    My sister will join with me - bonus.

    I plan to be at the trailhead between 9 and 10a. Since I'm coming via Breckenridge, I'll be in cell range until perhaps hoosier pass (unknown if cell service is in the area).

    For sure I'm doing this soon! My dog is really old and goofy and saw my backpack as I was getting to leave, got excited thinking she was coming... really excited... I guess she realized she was having an accident and got herself to the door, leaving a trail the whole way. I was literally on my way out the door when it happened.

    Bummer - though you have a wonderful / trusty trip companion with many miles together - a time off is no big deal in the big picture.
