Comments
Comments: We went up for a sunrise hike, arrived to the parking lot at Starr King Road at 4am, and there was one other car. It ended up being foggy and socked-in, so did not see the sunrise. Still a great hike, trail in good condition, no issues, and we were the only ones even though there was a car parked in the lot. On our descent, almost to the trailhead, we started passing hikers on their way up. We finished around 7:30am and the lot was full. I lost my headlamp on the way down. Most likely slipped off my hat when I fell...if you find it enjoy! It's a good lamp!
