A great day to hike and wonderful trail/mountain for the job! This is a favorite of mine and the conditions were perfect. Trail is in wonderful condition minus a few (easy to navigate around) blowdowns. Not much mud except for the last half mile or so but most is easily avoidable by way of rocks on trail. Trail is a bit wet with the slabby section approaching last stretch before the summit so take that slow if shoe traction isn't on point and be careful with foot placement. Like Charlie mentioned in previous trail report, trail is easy to follow as this is a popular hike and well maintained! Lots of folks out Tuesday. It's summer :) |
