Frog Mountain — Monday, Aug. 28, 2023

Great day for this hike! The overcast skies cleared up just after Index. Four cars already at the trailhead at 9:30 a.m. This hike was a workout; made it to the top just before noon, stopping for numerous breath and water breaks. Bring extra sun protection, because you will be exposed for some time toward the top and will sweat off your sunscreen! I almost did not make the final push to the very top, but braved the switchbacks that cut across the steep meadows. This would be an awesome cool but sunny autumn hike.
