This is exactly what I'm looking for in a trip report - details of what others should and shouldn't do who might follow in your footsteps, as well as some personal "things that happened to us" anecdotes.
Loved the comment about the stars - you should have taken a long-exposure to brag about!
I wrote this a while ago and since have done a good bit more hiking so it's funny to look at the things we didn't know the answers to and to remember that trip. It was definitely a great hike and hope you have fun.

Great reportI'm from Indiana, and I think I'll try your plan out when I try Elbert next year. Thanks for the practical advice.
