Having taken that trail before, and doing both options, I would suggest stopping at Crater Lake, participate in their program if you can, then over Fowler Pass and on to Beaubin. Coming "back" to Trail Peak on your layover day.
This allows for additional program and a more "relaxed" climb and visit to Trail Peak.
