Second time to summit Wilson. Again racing sunset, would suggest doing earlier than end of October for more break time.  Beautiful trail though not as shaded as from Chantry Flat.
The Cosmic Cafe at the top is not open on weekdays but the bathrooms are great. The top also features a water fill station and picnic tables. Wonderful place for lunch and break before decent. (On my first trip on a weekend we did enjoy cafe goods. Nice to not have to carry extra food & water)
The official peak is a little underwhelming but there is a small faded sign for posterity.

This was 15 miles RT. Took us 7 hours total.
