Just one comment (and this is the same for all of the peaks with Maroon Lake as a jumping off point). The directions say "During these hours a shuttle can take you to the trailhead from Ruby Park in downtown Aspen." Maybe you could add the following: "This shuttle operates daily during the the summer season and only on the weekends during the fall. Call for the current schedule." I just don't want anyone attempting to go climbing there this time of year thinking that the shuttle will bring them up to Maroon Lake during the week. Granted it is really easy to hitch a ride up the road. I recently met someone who flew in from Seattle, planning to head up to Maroon Lake on Thursday, only to find out that the shuttle wasn't running. As opposed to trying to hitch (people don't realize how easy it is here) he came back to Aspen and shelled out the $ for a hotel. A truly sad story indeed!
