I have done many pre-dawn inclines in the winter to get to work on time and also many full moon night hikes. The moon lights up the incline with snow like its daytime. I've even slept under the stars at the top - beautiful to see the city lights at night and watch the sunrise in the morning. Definitely not for a dawn to dusk limitation. I promise to park at the bottom and tip-toe up Ruxton :-).

That's a really good question Debbie. A couple of things that I took away from the meeting. Dawn to dusk would not apply to Barr Trail, though the planners didn't say as much. It probably won't make the final draft. Everyone was opposed to it.
