Date Hiked: 11-14-07

Conditions: The trail is dry on the bottom and snowy on the top -- it's that time of year when vertical rise is like changing the season from fall to winter. Otherwise, this most excellent trail is in fine condition.

Special Required Equipment: Our group used Stabilicers on the upper trail as we climbed up through icy to snowy conditions. The summit was windy (gusts to 50 mph), where a jacket and hood really helped.
