I did the trails of the Dirty Bismark last year, and frankly they were just too demanding, although with some judicious rerouting I think I could do the easier trails.

eg: Marshal Valley trail - bad.
Cowdrey Draw - very bad.
Mayhoeffer - fine.
Coalton and High Plains - good, as long as you carry oxygen.

And so on.
