The trail is in perfect condition as usual. This was my 4th trip up Mount Rose this year and probably the last. ONP on its website says that ONF is going to close the road to staircase on November 1st. What a shame. I had the trail all to myself except that I summited at the exact same time as a man who was hiking the other direction on the loop.
Lots of fall mushrooms but lots of mushroom pictures near the trail head too. No worries for me thought I got my share of mushrooms at the upper elevations.
Camp robber jays joined me at the summit and I was able to take a really neat picute of a camprobber sitting on my hand on the summit rock with Cushman in view below.
Two days later and I am still sore.
