To start with, I woke up extra early on accident and decided just to get going. I am glad I did because I caught a beautiful sunrise and there was nobody on the road once I got off a Pearblossom Highway (which felt pretty weird for LA).
There were a good number of cars in the parking lot when I started around 6:30. It was already warm enough to ditch my jacket (I think when I left at 10:30 my car said it was 100°).
Again, there are patches of snow near the top, but it is manageable. I am glad I had my polls for additional stability.
Oh and the bugs were a little bit annoying at points but not the entire time.
