Club last hiked this:

First hiked by the club on February 20, 1920, this magnificent switchback route was built by plantation workers under James B. Castle in 1906. CCC crews then extended the trail from the saddle to the summit in 1935. Take extreme care on the narrow eroded sections and look out for the bottomless mudholes.
