The old trail is awesome. You get an amazing workout out in all while working on navigating skills through the solid 1/2+ mile that is washed out. The views at the top are beyond worth enduring the grueling incline. Please keep in mind this trail is used to train for people who are planning on summiting Mount Rainer and is recognized as one of the top five hardest hikes in Washington. That being said, always carry the ten essentials with you and bring a buddy. Happy hiking!
