I was a little off my game after a late night of libations in front of the fire and a big hike the day before. But the trail is nice and the grade isn't too bad. We were off the summit long before any storms threatened the area. I like the upper half of this trail more than the north approach, but the lower half seems more boring than the other side. Benham is south facing so gets a little warmer on a sunny day. The road is almost unnoticable ... until there are cars driving on it, in which case it is pretty much always in earshot. So this one will be more peaceful on a weekday or off-season.
