Parked at Pumpelly Trail Head by Dublin Pond. A couple of blow downs on Pumpelly Trail before it starts to really climb; one was tricky for short legs to stradle and get over. Otherwise there was just a fair amount of mud and water as the warm temperatures were melting the little bit of snow fairly quickly. Bare booted the entire way to the summit. Microspikes had a nice ride in my pack. Took Red Spot trail down to intersection with Cascade Link. Just some running water on the trail and lots of wet leaves. Rocks were slippery which required some caution on the way down. Back up to the Pumpelly Trail on the Cascade Link and back down the final three miles of the Pumpelly trail. Nice day to be on the mountain.
