I think counterclockwise has better views and also does most climbs on the northern slopes. You end with a tough climb, but I also wouldn't want to slog up the 10m+ climb from Three Forks to Gray Wolf Pass, which is a long and easy descent. Enjoy!

I see that you ran this counterclockwise. Is there any pros/cons on doing it the other way. I see that the trail are well labelled on my map. Is the signage OK as well?<br /><br />Thanks for all your blog posts. I really enjoy reading them.Charles Yuenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06274981106329386568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3494358661382300758.post-64274297183132534702014-08-04T16:12:15.850-07:002014-08-04T16:12:15.850-07:00Woohoo!

What an incredible part of this world - portions of it felt just like heaven. And while the last two climbs (Gray Wolf Pass and back up to Deer Park) were brutal, their blows were softened by the expanding views.<br /><br />I second you: Go do this loop. Now.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08516971634744803864noreply@blogger.com
