Yes, that upper section is definitely the most difficult part of the hike. It’s also where the best views are, though! 😀 Glad you enjoyed your hike.

We hiked in the counterclockwise direction which I would recommend! The initial paved trail is beautiful thru fall colors. We saw 44 marmots during our 5+mi hike. The only difficult part was more at the top of the hike, climbing over some uneven rocks in an area that was not well marked. It was very cloudy the day we were there which made this section more difficult. It was also very cold! We had lunch on a monument bench about halfway through and had an overly friendly (hungry) marmot visitor. (We did not feed him) Great views of Nisqually glacier. The hike down was more steep, lots of steps and generally not as beautiful…but all in all a fun interesting hike.
