I have been wanting to do this hike for a long time now and I couldn't wait any longer. I have been keeping an eye on the trip reports and it has been awhile since the last one so here it is: Even though I knew it would be mostly cloudy with little chance of seeing the mountain a friend and I headed to the top. We were the only ones on the trail the whole time. A couple of snow patches that were easy to cross, just sunk a little a few times. It was very cold and windy at the top, quite a big difference from the temperature we experienced from the rest of the hike which was warmer. The lookout was awesome and I would love to come back on a nice summer day/night and stay...so I will be back!

About how long did it take you from the trailhead?

Hi Bubbles. Looks like you made it up by reading your trip report. It took us a little under 2 hours to get to the top and that was taking a couple breaks to take in the scenery and what not. Also, my hiking partner has a cast on her arm so we were being super careful by going slow up the rocky switchbacks. Happy hiking!

Thanks!
Thanks for the advice! It took me about the same. I was wondering since I got such a late start yesterday (didn't hit the trail til 4) but it all worked out :)
