Comments
Comments: Unexpected hike with my son today! His 1st 4K made for a great day! Warm to start the climb right off the bat! Lots of folks heading up & coming done early. No issues trail in great shape until past the outlook, views here were amazing! Kinda sad to see the damage being down thru the flat areas trying to avoid the mud. This whole area will be a muddy bog if nothing is done…..IMO. Tram not running at full capacity due to the Triathlon but still many on top….circus. Stopped at the cafe for a $10 beer! Less people on the way down, no issues.

Thanks Ryan for a great hike! Only 47 to go! 😏
