Go to the Timberline ski area and find JR in the bike shop, He will hook you up with any beta you need.

Also in Davis go to the highland prospects gear store and get some maps of the Dolly sods, if ben is there you may be able to talk him into abandoning all responsibilities and go for a ride.

I don't know the Blackwater cycles guys very well but they can also provide you with good advice.

I'll be there Saturday evening and Sunday riding lift serve DH.
