I started at 3:30pm two Saturday's ago, plenty of parking and once I hit the kelso turnoff I didn't see anyone till I was backdown near the trailhead. Summit to myself for 45 minutes. I highly recommend it if you can find a good forecast.

Uwe is pretty tough. I was going to say 4am. Or you could go an hour earlier and see the sunrise from your first summit. But seriously it does rock to be the first one to the summits on a day when hundreds are going up.
