This was the hardest trail I've been on in a while. It could have been that I worked all morning, it could have been the Harry Potter induced lack of sleep, it could have even been the steepness of the trail. I think it was worth it however.....

The flowers up there (about 5300ft, 6000 for the lookout) are amazing

Enjoy.
