Comments
Comments: An absolutely gorgeous day for a hike. Trail was in generally good condition. The last mile from just before the side downlook all the way to the peak had unstable monorail. Postholed a couple dozen times; a couple of times up to my crotch. Slowed the ascent and descent, but didn't detract from the hike. Alone at the peak and the views were unbelievable.
