I missed trail access details on my 2003 tour by Jacque (Stampede Pass Weather Station). Also any beta on volunteering at Lester or is it to fade away naturally?

Lester is essentially gone, the remaining structures were removed in 2017.

I've gone down the Kelly Butte trail towards Lester a few miles. Trail still is followable, although brushy in places and faint in others. Didnt' get all the way down to Lester Creek, but intel I've heard is that the trail gets really faint as you get closer to Lester and very tough to find the start of the trail at that end.

I have been to the start of the trail by Lester a few times. The remains of the foot bridge over Lester Creek are on the ground. The trail is easily discernable, but I have not followed it far. On a separate but area related note, the Sawmill Creek trail was cleared two years ago.
