Now that the heat is finally here, early morning hikes up west facing slopes rise to the top of my list. Picketpost fits the bill nicely.

Kelly and I got started on the hike at about 0530. The air was still kinda cool, warming up significantly once we gained some elevation out of the low lying areas. Comfortable in the shade though. We made good time to the summit where we took in the views for a bit before descending. On our descent, we saw a pair of hikers going up just as the gnats were getting aggressive. Good luck!

Had breakfast in Superior after the hike then checked out a funky little museum. Fun morning. Thanks Kelly!
