Parking/Access Road Notes: There were already a few cars there when i arrived at 7:30. When I left that afternoon, the parking lot was full and there were many cars parked on the side of tripoli road.

Comments
Comments: It was a great clear day on the Osceolas. The lower part of the mount osceola trail was dry while the upper part has running water and parts of a monorail. There were some patches of mud. On the ridge, there was more monorail and mud. The snow was never consistent enough to bother putting on microspikes. I had a fun time climbing up the chimney, and even saw a pine marten! There were a lot of people out. This mountain is a popular spot for tourists.
