It was grueling, but awesome. Lots of steep hills with 50 pounds on your back, but the views and the experience make it totally worth it. This picture overlooks Chicago Basin.

I went in early July. The weather was great, maybe 45 degrees at night, 70 during the day. Perfect.

Why did you take a mountain goat? Wasn't he a bit too heavy to carry down the mountain?
