Comments
Comments: Middle Osceola is a Trailwrights peak along with West Osceola. The path is pretty obvious to start out, but eventually seems to lead south down off the ridge which is not where you want to be headed. At that point a much fainter herd path that comes and goes leads along the ridge to the peaks. Took in the main peak as well. Lots and lots of people coming and going. Beautiful day.
