We had an awesome night on Garnet Mtn watching a few storms roll in - unlike any thunderstorms we’ve ever experienced! The hike in was a steady climb but well maintained trail until the last .8 of a mile which is 4x4 road and not nearly as fun to walk on. The cabin was cozy, well stocked, and had incredible views in every direction. Only thing that sucked was how disgusting the outhouse was - it was the picture perfect place to get hantavirus so we just didn’t even use it. Hopefully USFS can get it cleaned out at some point for future guests. Otherwise we had an amazing experience and hope to get back up there again some day!

So Awesome. Extremely foggy on hike up, cleared up somewhat in the morning. Previous campers leave supplies they didn't use, including food and propane. Take some and leave some. Log books are all full though! Make sure you bring enough water
