 | Comments: |
Started around 7:45 and the lot/road were already packed. No issues heading to the summit. Not very busy. Attempted the trek to East, but the dogs couldn't handle it. Wouldn't recommend for dogs. Turned back to make the descent and the summit was crowded. Kept moving and had to bypass many heading down and lines of people making the ascent. The trail isn't very wide, so it was a lot of stop and go. I'd definitely start early on a summer weekend. |
