Ed- we took off from the town of Elkhorn on the Muskrat Ck (Iron Mine) trail, near the top of the trail you veer off to the east up to Windy Pass and on to Elkhorn Peak-> cross country to Crow Peak-> follow the ridge line to the east for about a mile and then angle down- it’ll put you on a old forest service road above Leslie Lake, follow that road most of the way down Queens Gulch- there’s a cut off road to the west that will deposit you back to Elkhorn

I think the distance isn’t that much different than hitting Elkhorn and Crow as an out and back, but saves you a climb back up to Elkhorn Peak and lets you see a little different country
