Had to pick between the fire road and the ridge trail at sunrise last week

I went with the ridge trail because my buddy said the views were better but I ended up slipping on wet rock for a solid half mile and my knee still hurts, has anyone else regretted a route choice because you trusted someone's advice over the map?

Did you at least get some killer photos before eating it on the wet rocks?

Ugh I've definitely been there. Picking the scenic route on someone else's say-so is a gamble every time. My rule lately is stick to the map if the weather's been wet, people always forget to mention the slippery parts.
