I only did the first half of the loop, so the "good trail conditions" are only up to the intersection with the Brush Creek trail. My friends finished the loop though in good time, so I don't think the obstacles others have mentioned are all that bad. The snow is only on Hannegan Peak, and is no issue at all. Lots of people camping up there! It looked amazing, but ugh, hauling a full pack up there would make that grind an unpleasant one. Oh, and bugs were only bad at the Hannegan Camp, and it was mostly black flies. I went all the way through to Ross Lake on the PNT, but I'll make that a whole different report, because things totally changed once I was off the loop. Please enjoy the story on my blog. https://kellbell-whywouldanyonereadthis.blogspot.com/2022/08/hannegan-peak-at-last.html
