| Comments: |
A great day for hiking this moderate trail. We took time to observe some of the trail features like the cribbing at 4200 feet. We started to layer up as the trail bent more to the east. Above treeline was very windy. At the summit there was a sustained wind of about 30-35mph with gusts of 40-45mph. |
