Comments
Comments: A do over to get to the top after my Sunday trip where I had to turn around. A special thanks to the person who broke the trail to the top. Trail well packed up to water crossing at 1.5 miles, followed one set of tracks from there up the switchbacks and consolidated their efforts - between this person and my effort the trail is now fairly well packed to the summit - wet and sticky down low and a bit deeper and softer higher up on the switchbacks but a good solid trail even across the sidehills. Be prepared all the way up the switchbacks since you'll be pushing through branches and limbs all the way up and there are a few really nasty eye pokers.
