Trail is in great shape. Around the glacial pothole outlook the corridor gets narrow but it's fine, you'd get a little wet if hiking early from the morning dew on overhanging branches. If hiking fast through this stretch, watch going around the corners not to run up on or into hikers, almost did this myself, sorry about that!
Very warm day out, but always nice to go up the Ridge of the Caps for some above treeline hiking. Lots of hikers out and about enjoying the trail. Nice to run into Peter (thegibba) out there on the trails :)
