Total round-trip was under 11 miles according to my GAIA app. I did take a hard right at the Huntington trail and hit the road to the summit. Park is closed so no vehicle traffic (no water either) and no vehicles at the summit either. Quite a few hikers at the summit. Spoke with some that came up Ammo and said it was icy and wanted to know if returning on the cog path was doable. Saw a chopper circling around for about 15 minutes in the vicinity of the summit but it then took off across the Wildcats and disappeared. |
