Video of the hike.
Overall, trail was in great condition. Rocky in a few locations, but didn't need to scramble. All the snow is gone. It was around 80 in LA in the afternoon, but the mountains was a bit chilly in the 60's with about a 20 mph wind. I was in shorts and tshirt, and could have used a light sweater. In the afternoon it started to get a bit warmer. No bugs at all on the trail.
Water was running at the spring at 2 1/2 mile. Was a cool enough day that I went through less than a liter of water.
Parking. Sunrise was 5:45 AM, got there at 5:15 AM and the main parking lot was almost filled. So get there early if you are doing a morning hike.
