Pretty empty on a weekday. DIdn't see anyone else. Aspens on the nearby 189 road were already changing.

Super steep, but not overly difficult. The ending of the trail is completely random where the forest service just decided to erect a sign in the middle of. No parking lot or anything. Lot's of traffic on the trail.
