Comments
Comments: Mt. Osceola Trail from the parking lot to the summit was virtually snow free, but there were some areas of pooled water and mud high up, as well as some wet ledges to contend with. Lots of wildflowers in bloom for the first tenth of a mile.

A few stretches of monorail between the peaks, but otherwise probably about 90% snow free. Chimney is snow free and mostly dry.
