My wife and I reached trailhead around 9:15 AM and easily found the parking. The trail gains elevation quickly in initial mile or so. After that, there were less steep stretches in between helping you to re-gain energy. It took us 2 hours to reach the top and another 15-20 mins to scramble on the rocks. We got our subway packed for lunch which we had at the top. It was a bit foggy but we could still see I-90. The descent took us around an hour and 45 mins. We packed lot of water and gatorade but didn't exhaust all. Probably a litre and half of water is sufficient per person. It's a good exercise and would recommend everyone to do it. You can slow down based on your hiking skills.
