    Default Help planning a two or three night section

    My brother in-law and I would like to do a two or three night section going north from Standing Indian. Where would be a good stopping/starting point? We would like to park our cars around Standing Indian (probably the back country parking near the campground), catch a shuttle to the point north along the trail, and walk back to our car. Any suggestions, would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    The trail was here before we arrived, and it will still be here when we are gone...enjoy it now, and preserve it for others that come after us
