Great hike. There was no problem getting to the trail head nor the hike. At about 2 3/4 miles is when the snow really started. It was melting snow and snow shoes would have been nice, but ultimately unneeded as gators and crampons worked just fine. The Johnston Observatory had multiple goats all around but a fantastic view of the caldera. The hike back saw significantly less snow due to temps in the 70's.
