Wow! I could not imagine a more beautiful time of year to do this hike - the fall foliage is popping and there are a ton of delicious blueberries to enjoy. We expected some smoke from the Labor Mountain Fire but it stayed relatively okay all day.
No major obstacles in the trail although remains rooty and rocky up to Rachel. Overall, lots of people heading out to backpack for the weekend but it seemed like more people were going to the Rampart Ridge side of things; a good number of spots available left on a Saturday morning at Lila. Next time we'll check out Alta Mtn!
