There is a constant rain cloud over the trail but when you get to the top it clears up for an amazing view. Definitely a strenuous hike so make sure you pack a few beers for when you get to the top.

Stunning views here. Definitely not an easy hike but it is not hard. Would give it a medium difficulty hike. If you are not fit enough and fat like me you can definitely take breaks to enjoy the scenery.
