 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
3 cars in the AM and packed at the return at the end of the day. PLEASE learn how to space cars at the trailhead. I almost hit a car that was partially blocking me in. If cars are parked head in, do not parallel park on the other side behind them... Especially if there is limited room to back out! Take a few extra steps and park down from the trailhead. You'll still reach the summit at the same time. ;) |

A perfect peak for the weather forecast today. The wildflowers were amazing and Isis and I enjoyed our hike out to Waumbek. The trail is in great shape with only mud to deal with and a few step over blow downs. No significant issues to report. There is one patch of ice however, I suspect that will be gone by next weekend. |
