I have been wanting to go check out the Dusy Ershim trail for a couple years now. I have never been.
Anyone interested in running it late this Summer (around August)? It's a challenging high Sierra trail that is relatively close to Southern California (about 5:30 from dowtown LA).
The trail is around 33 miles long, and is rated as "difficult". I understand the trail can be done in 2-3 days, but that 3-4 would be better. In one link below, it looks like some XJ's on 32s ran it...
