While Seattle was boiling in a weird cloudy heat wave, it was pleasantly chilly up there.
Parking lot was almost empty when I arrived at 6 pm, with some five cars in there. TH bathroom was in average condition with no TP.
It was very quiet on the trail, and 99% of time I had it to myself, including waterfall. Hiked Franklin Falls trail up to the falls and Wagon Road trail back to the parking lot. Both trails are in great condition.
That being said, Franklin Falls trail is more inexperienced-hiker-friendly. Wagon Road has fair share of roots and also a single blowdown to cross. Also note that some boardwalk pieces are being replaced at Wagon Road, so you may run into some construction and need to navigate around it.
