Comments
Comments: 1st time up from this side, short but steep. Been a long time since I put in wet, muddy, slippery rock conditions in a trail report. Pretty much slippery conditions top to bottom. Lots of people coming down as I was heading up. Denim, cotton & sneakers ruled the trail today! 90% of the people I saw were unprepared for hiking. Even saw 2 kids in crocs! Its a wonder more folks dont get hurt!Sun broke thru for amazing views & sunset! Slow & steady down, night hiking is a trip!
