It is still a bit early for this hike. In the first 2 miles snow patches increase in frequency and eventually cover entire trail at 3475ft. We initially made good progress wearing Microspikes. Unfortunately, we were force to turn around just before the saddle (mile 2)because there were no longer clues of where the trail was. On a positive note, we had the parking lot and trail to ourselves on Memorial Day weekend!
The seven miles of dirt road off of US 2 was manageable in a sedan despite lots of potholes. You just have to go a little slower.
