Small numbers of wildflowers blooming, but they were there! Generally in good condition, there were some muddy spots here and there. The waterfalls were fairly full.
Also worth noting, there's no real view from the peak. If you're looking for views, this isn't the trail for you.
Please note that the written directions for this hike are correct, but the GPS coordinates are not. On Google Maps, you can go a little to the east and click on "Jim Whittaker Wilderness Peak Trailhead" and follow the directions to that spot. Don't follow directions that send you up 185th Ave. The lot you want is about half a mile north/east on highway 900 (towards I-90) from the turn for 185th Ave, which will only take you to private houses and has no access into the park.
