Off at about 11:40AM. I wore a single polar trax on my right shoe as my other one had broken on a previous hike. The trail was fairly icy in spots and I hugged either side (where crusty snow was), as well as the ditch adjacent to the trail to navigate. I stopped to take pictures on the way down and made it to the resthouse in 34 minutes, which included one fall around the 1 mile switchbacks. I went up to check the temperature which showed 32 degrees. After 5 minutes in the area, I began my ascent. I had good energy and jogged in spurts (good stretch near the top), but the ice slowed me down a bit. Nonetheless, I was pleased to break 30 minutes on the ascent.
