Heavy rain throughout the whole hike. Trailhead surprisingly busy at 5:30AM on a rainy Sunday. Macomb slide was very tricky in the rain; slow ascent up the rocks to avoid slips or falls. Whole trail from Macomb through Grace Peak was flooded and stream-like. No panoramic summit views (too cloudy) but lots of flora and fauna along the trail.
