The trail is in great shape considering the rain. It's an easy to moderate hike. You will find plenty of mud but it's not bad and you can avoid it for the most part. Plenty of standing water and flowing water on the trail above 3,000 feet. Yes the last .2 mile is kind of steep but it's very manageable especially if you take extra time. Overall easy 10 miles from parking lot to summit and back. Took the 4 of us 6 hours. |
