A great day for a hike, and the conditions of the trail were pretty good. Fog at the summit (around 8:30a) so I missed out on some great views, unless views of fog are your thing. It started burning off a bit after I was making my descent, so folks heading up after probably got some stellar ones. The only caveat for this trail are the large slanted slabs of rock - at times they can seem navigable but are pretty slick. Other than that, 'twas an easy and fun hike. I didn't bother with East Osceola on this visit, but the mountain's not going anywhere. |
