Oh the sarcasm I could spout out!!!   :chuckle:
 
The only real place to slow down and watch what you're doing is through Dead Horse turn. Yes, good headlights are a must there. Hug the wall. watch for rocks. Pray. Go slow.. Watch for rocks. Pray...
 
If you're taking the Buckskin ridge trail to start, don't go all the way up to Slate peak. You want the second trailhead (Robinson creek trailhead Y's to Buckskin part way down the ridge at the upper end of the valley), after you pass Harts pass campground. The trailhead up at Slate will take you down to Rock creek/Holman and this time of year there's likely a good snowfield to cross just after you drop over the edge.

Remmel Lake, Upper Cathedral Lake, Lower Cathedral Lake to name a few.  Beautiful place to camp anyway in the Pasayten I'd imagine!

MLHSN:
I was looking at that option Mountainman and Steen.  It looked like it might be hard to squeeze in to 3 days.  What trailhead do you guys use?  Looking at the maps, there appears to be several access points.

Crook:
Billygoat Pass to cougar lake is 13 miles out of winthrop elevation gain is peaks out at about 6500 feet at the pass, then it is all down hill to cougar lake
