Yikes, just saw the previous trip report! Didn't have any animal encounters except cute dogs but will definitely be packing my bear spray next time!
FYI there may be a toilet at the trailhead in the summer months but there isn't one now so plan accordingly.
Trail is in good condition, a few muddy spots and a couple of small blowdowns but all are easily traversed. Would definitely recommend poles to prevent slipping in the mud on the descent. Not a whole lot of fall foliage except on the ground, but the snow is creeping in on the mountaintops making for beautiful views at the top. Lots of cool fungi to look at too.
