Just what you would think of for "perfect" July weather. The sun was beaming and it wasn't too humid although very hot out. Right as we reached the summit clouds rolled in and it started to rain and then... hail!! Can you believe it?! Hail in July! We came down the mountain and were laughing in disbelief the entire time. Fortunately, it only lasted about 15 minutes and then went back to warm, "non-hail" weather once again. This trail was a lot of fun, especially because of the group of friends hiking! We had a blast with a lot of laughs and hard work along the way. We made it back to the car injury free, and once again visited one of our favorite spots, the Noonmark diner.
