| Comments: |
A bit of everything--shoulder season, used winter boots the whole way, monorail was stable and didnt fall in , summits bare rock, ground was mossy and soft under 3000 feet, waterfall on Inlook trail refreshing to soak feet, I only saw 3 people, 3 very friendly hikers :). Peaceful Blue sky day. |
