Really enjoyable trail, had great weather on 5/23/2026. Challenging but fun. Some intermittent snow in the meadows in the final thousand feet of vert but it doesn’t get consistent until the last 700-800 ft of vert. Some of the snow bridges are getting sketchy. The climb was doable with microspikes and poles, although the snow gets soft and slushy fast. Started the hike around 8:15am, summited in just under 3 hours, had lunch at the top and made it back to the car before 2pm. The trail and parking lot was never very crowded, and there was plenty of parking available when we arrived at 8am. The views of all the surrounding peaks were PHENOMENAL. 10/10 day overall
