Did the trail on Sep 7, it was dry and in good condition. There is also good signage with maps along the way to show your current location. The trail starts pretty flat from the parking lot but it has a few short steep sections along the way (starting with a climb towards the loop portion of the trail). If you like taking pictures then I would probably say go in the morning as we went in the afternoon and the sun was in the frame.
This trail is very popular and the parking lot seems to always be busy. If you are concerned with social distancing due to the current situation then this might not be the trail for you.
Personally I prefer a different scenery and less crowds hence the 3 stars.
