- Water on trail
Wettest I've ever been. The trail was more like a river in many places and the stairs were puddles. Granted, this was right after an overnight downpour and it rained most of the day. The boulders aren't slick and the trail isn't muddy in the steep parts, so you're okay as long as you have good shoes, but expect to run into lots of water on the trail in rainy season. On a positive note, there are plenty of the beautiful fall colors that we left the house to see. The mountain sides are a pretty mix of red, yellow, and green.
