Let me just say… this hike is no joke. It’s long, steep, and has a hella incline basically the whole way up. Both mentally and physically, it’ll push you, like fr, there were moments I was questioning my life choices. But somehow, it also ended up being one of the most beautiful and empowering things I’ve ever done.
The views are absolutely insane—foggy at times, but when it clears, it’s next-level stunning. We stayed overnight, and the sunset and sunrise were both out of this world. Like, jaw on the floor type of moment. It does get cold and super windy at night, but nothing too crazy if you’re layered up right.
There were also so many doggies along the way which weirdly made the whole thing more wholesome and uplifting. I went with a big group, and I really think that made all the difference—the motivation and energy helped keep me going, especially during the tough parts.
Despite how challenging it was, I’d 100% do it again. Something about the struggle + views + vibes just made it totally worth it. If you’re into adventure and want a challenge with a serious reward at the top, this one’s for you.
