 | Comments: |
Easy trail for the first 1.5 miles, gets steeper at that point but still moderate up through the switchbacks. The last 500 or so feet are a steep climb. Trail was dry, a couple of muddy spots but completely avoidable. 52 degrees at the trailhead, 39 with wind gusts to 50MPH at the top. Sunny but typical changeable conditions with vertical gain. |
