Started the hike at 4:40 AM. Chilly 45 degrees, but stopped to delayer in the first 15 minutes of hiking up the not so subtle start. The trail was completely dry until right before the summit where there was a small, melting snowfield for 200 ft (no-postholing required). After eating lunch/breakfast on the summit we started heading down into the masses. By 8:30am the trail was packed with hikers reaching the summit. Mountain goats on the way up and down today. These baby goats were not cautious around people, however their parents were lurking nearby, play it safe! Beautiful day with perfect weather. Wish we had started earlier as descent would have more pleasant without throngs of people. |
