A beautiful day with a hint of a breeze. Trail was mostly dry but very muddy in spots. There was a moderate number of flies & (I think) mosquitoes at the top; they didn't annoy us much (was it the DEET?), but some other hikers today thought they were awful. In any case, if the bugs are bad at the summit, there is a fine bug-free spot for lunch shortly below. Poles and power-assisted boots strongly recommended.
