Beautiful! The ascent was not technically difficult. The traverse was tricky in some sections, narrow path with a steep drop off to the right. Not ideal to run, but one can manage if taken with care. Some parts of the trail are not maintained & overgrown. For instance, toward the end of the traverse, take note to follow the split to the left (do not follow the well-maintained trail toward Sum).
