Angels Rest TH to Devil's Rest

8.4 miles of hiking • 2500' elevation gain •

I wanted to climb up some elevation in an effort to hike in the snow. Not many hikers on the trail, but then it was a weekday. Once I passed up Angels Rest there were NO hikers all the way to Devil's Rest! At about 2000 feet there was snow on the trail and the trees, and there were snow flurries all the way to Devil's Rest. No serious debris or landslides on the trail. When I arrived at Devil's Rest there were many small pumpkins left from a hiking group that decorated the area for Halloween! It was an amazing hike with so much solitude and a festive holiday feeling with the snow everywhere!

Sounds like post storm blowdown wasn't too bad?

Somehow this area was spared the damage! There was a small area on the trail before Devil's Rest that had some downed branches but it wasn't bad.
