Got to the parking lot at 6:15 and it as already full , so had to park on the street.  Crowded for the first few miles of the trail , so wore my buff . One small stream crossing, Fall foliage, interesting rock formations, and a lot of switchbacks. Saw the Super Hiking Twins on the way up, who passed us on one of our many breaks! My friend got what we think was altitude sickness so we took it easy, but we made it to the top. The views were definitely worth the struggle! I would definitely do this one again!
