Man, that seems early to already be melting out so much.....guess it's been hot lately. Where is the rock section (up high, in the middle) and how hard was it? I'm not interested in going up there again, just curious mostly.

When I do it this year, I planned on taking the usual "ladder" route up but then coming down thru cherry canyon trail. I'm calling the forest service just to be sure of everything, not that the sign isn't believable; it's just that I was really looking forward to NOT coming down the ladder for once!
