Ascent Trip Report

This is a very scenic hike, and I'm not just referring to the summit. The views, sometimes up-close, sometimes distant, were amazing. In terms of the trail, it had decent footing and was easy to follow. Overall it's not that steep, but in starts off with the steepest part of the hike, so be prepared.
