Comments
Comments: Trail in good shape. Mainly dry, some mud but easily avoided. A couple of slick spots halfway up the ravine, but nothing dangerous. Saw 5 day-hikers descending on my way up, and only 2 NoBos at the top, very quiet at the peak. 5 hikers staying at the shelter overnight.
Great trail, but a challenge none the less, 5 hour round-trip.
