I did this hike in summer 1999. It was a fabulous day, no clouds when I left home; some fluffy ones when I first started hiking. At the farthest point of the trail a storm closed-in (see picture below). No place to get cover so I had to walk back to the station in heavy hail and lightning. I never ran so fast in my life, but I'm still alive and now I will never forget this hike.
