I can't believe everyone is talking about driving up to the summit.
Get up off your lazy ass and hike it!! It is possible to get up there using your own to two feet...well, maybe not during the summer...but it's totally worth it.
I'm taking off a star because I think the trail is difficult to follow towards the top and I've gotten lost several times. And getting lost in the mountains with no cell phone coverage gives me a panic attack.
They also have silent sundays where they close off the road to the summit to vehicle traffic. Bicylists love it. I tried to walk it once, but I got more mean comments from cyclists in a few hours than I had in the entire previous year. Apparently, I didn't know I was supposed to walk the shoulder of the road. So from now on, I'll stick to hiking the mountain trail and enjoy beautiful mother nature..
