| Comments: |
A great day on the trails. We did the round trip in 7 hours but were moving at a very steady pace with minimal breaks. After the initial steady climb, grades ease and the remainder of the hike is.much more gentle. Be prepared to navigate plenty.of.muddy and wet sections on the trail. Great views on summit. Saw mama moose and her baby on Iso trail. A must do hike. |
