Beautiful hike - clear to summit, gorgeous views all around, many wildflowers still in bloom. There was a lot of buzzing at the top, but very few bugs that cared to bite! Directions in "Day Hiking: Central Cascades, C. Romano" are about dead-on. I would clarify that the first junction with the "Old Gib Trail" has a slightly confusing sign, just remember to keep left at any point the trail meets another. Also, when driving from the West, the Chiwawa River Road sign is pretty small, turn left when you see the big green Chiwawa Valley sign, that is the Chiwawa River Rd. Finally, I am not an overnighter, but the campsite looks pretty derelict to me - certainly not someplace I'd want to spend any time, and, it isn't really "creekside" - there's a lot of brush between the site and the creek.
