We did this hike memorial day weekend, and were the only ones on the trail. We started around 8 am and were finished by 9:30. It was nice to sit at the top and just enjoy the views.

We went on this hike the morning we left the park. We didn't make it all the way to the end, as it was making us nervous with the kids. There are a few sheer drop-offs, and we didn't want to chance it. What we experienced was fun, and we'd definitely do it again without the kids. more
