| Comments: |
I read that it takes 4.5 hours RT but I was up to the top in 1 hour, 20 mins and down in less. Trail was muddy in some spots, standing water in others, slushy, snow covered and some post holes. But as long as you stayed on the monorail, I felt like it was ok. I wore spikes the entire way up and down. Two steep sections, one was a little brutal. The views were magnificent and it was a beautiful, spring day. The sun was out the entire way and overall, it was a great hike. |
