Best Hiking Window

Saturday offers the only reasonable window as skies are clearing overnight Saturday and conditions are most stable early Sunday before the secondary low arrives. An early morning start Sunday is the best option — aim to summit and descend before convective activity and mixed precipitation develop Sunday afternoon and intensify Sunday night. Do not underestimate how quickly conditions can deteriorate with the approaching low.

Trail: Glen Boulder Trail, Davis Path, Isolation Spur

Conditions: Dry Trail, Snow - Trace/Minimal Depth, Wet Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable, Mud - Significant

“A terrific day out on trail. Glen Boulder is in great condition. The one crossing was easy. No snow or ice. Davis path is in good shape but had a few spots of significant mud. The mud on 5/27 was navigable with waterproof trail runners but could get bad with the forecasted precipitation coming up. Davis Path had trace amounts of snow. No traction is required. Davis Path also has a few blow downs but nothing of issue. It looks like someone cleared some of the more obstructive trees.”

Trail: Glen Boulder Trail, Davis Path, Isolation Spur, Isolation Trail, Rocky Branch Trail

Conditions: Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Standing/Running Water on Trail, Mud - Significant

“Only a couple of small patches of snow (easily avoidable) after north isolation but traction is not needed at all. A lot of blowdowns from north isolation to halfway down rocky branch. Trails are waterlogged with significant mud - waterproof shoes, gators and poles were essential. Bushwhacked around two water crossings - the other two were rock hoppable.”
