Going down on MonroeWe preferred the variety of the lopp and decided to take down Monroe from the summit. Very crowded trail, but lots of shade.

Holy Snow Batman!Lots of snow still around 2500 ft and above. Made for a longer trip than planned. Awesome views on a clear day, lots of fun.

First Time on this side of the mountainClimbed the Monroe to the Dean trail and then descended via the Monroe. Did it with my wife. A great experience to be back on the mountain again.

Excellent day-hikeI've hiked this trail many times and always enjoy it, especially in Fall.
