Bill and I hiked to Summerland on this 80 degree mid-September Sunday. The park ranger reported bear have been seen regularly on the trail--a sow and 2 cubs--but we did not see them this hike. We have seen a mama bear and 2 cubs previously close up on this trail.
This day we were treated to a Mountain Goat grazing in a meadow in Summerland and also a golden marmot.
This is one of our favorite hikes--a nice wide trail free of rocks most of the way and a reasonable grade. It is a big treat to get to the stream and view of the mountain at Summerland.
