Ok, So I was never very good at this whole writing thing. so if any one is reading bear with me.
I did this hike with my wife. we hit the trail kinda early 8am, we felt this was the perfect time. weather was amazing. on the way up we didn't run into anyone. once at top there was a few people hanging put for the most part we had the place to our self. on the way down we ran into a few large groups of people on there way down. we took the main trail on the way up and 5 oaks trail. Next time we do this hike we want to do it the other way 5 oaks seemed like a more challenging up hill climb. we did the whole thing in 2h 15 min.
