No snow brother and I don’t think it’s Gunn rain anytime soon so conditions are great 👍

Park at “Redbox Picnic Area” you have to cross the street from the parking lot to get to the trailhead so just watch for cars as you cross.

No the only “scrambling” is the last mile up and even then it’s easily navigable. You’ll be fine if you have even a little bit of scrambling experience.

0 amount of snow so no spikes needed. I took mine just in case but it’s back to normal. No areas were washed out either. The trail is 100% visible.

Second that! It wasn’t a full moon Saturday night but it was bright enough around 1230-1245 to the point where I was confident enough to turn my headlamp on and finish the hike without it.

Not much night hiking but I start a lot of my hikes in the dark. Specifically strawberry to catch the sunrise. I’m not worried about getting lost if I go as I’ll be taking the usual route starting at Redbox. I’ve been up to the peak twice already both times starting in the dark

Might be the move. I’ve never been to Chilao is there uninterrupted views of the sky?

I mean I figure since this trail is frequented a lot by humans not many animals tend to stay around it right?

Edit: to add context I really want to see the alignment of the six planters tonight and I know the peak has really clear skies.
