Fantastic hike from the lower trailhead on a partly sunny, partly misty day.
As the description states, the lower hike is a nice stroll through beautiful wooded areas with few views. After the upper trailhead, the climb becomes extremely steep, but well worth the effort.
There were some late bloom wildflowers still hanging on, and two herds of goats, including kids, near the summit. The trail was in perfect condition, mostly dry, with no snow or standing water.
