    How did you get to cloud splitter??? I hiked this route with a friend in august. We got to the top of Indian staircase and circled the gorge, then reached that cave type shelter you went in. We kept following the path but somehow ended up circling back to the bisonway trailhead? Not sure how we missed cloud splitter but we were just happy we didn't get lost
