| Comments: |
The trail is in great shape. It is dry with no mud. The first 2.5 miles are almost flat. Irene Falls was only a trickle. The next mile is a steady climb. It was sad to see the poor condition of Cooper Lodge. The last 0.2 miles to the summit is a steep rock climb. Lots of leaves on the trail but it is not slippery. Hazy views from the summit. We saw 9 people. |
