Conditions are dangerous overnight Tuesday and remain difficult through Wednesday due to extreme winds and storm activity. The earliest viable window would be Thursday morning if winds subside and storms clear, though a new cold front and additional showers are forecast to develop Thursday afternoon. Monitor forecasts closely before committing — a Thursday early morning start is the most reasonable option in the 48-hour window, but conditions remain unsettled.
Trail: Greeley Ponds Trail, Mt. Osceola Trail
Conditions: Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable
“Trail is in great shape. A few of the log bridges are deteriorating down low on Greeley Pond Trail. Beautiful afternoon. Great hiking with some a nice breeze for most of the hike. If you are doing Osceola for the first time, strongly consider doing it from the Tripoli Road side. There is a decent slab that has to be navigated. Chimney and bypass were both dry between the two peaks.”
Trail: Mt. Osceola Trail, herd path
Conditions: Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Wet/Slippery Rock, Mud - Minor/Avoidable
“Beautiful days, albeit crowded. Started early and had views on both trips to Osceola. Had East Peak to myself. Took herd path to Middle Osceola for Trailwrights 72. Canister was overtightened and took a while to open.”
Trail: Mt. Osceola Trail
Conditions: Dry Trail, Wet Trail
“Sitting in a sauna is always relaxing. Hiking in one is always a good way to get the lungs and legs ready for summer. The trail is as good as it gets this time of year. Go out and enjoy. Bonus - Some very noisy crows might let you share the Osceola summit if you're lucky.”
