| Comments: |
This was a 2 day effort to obtain just Crocker. We ran out of time and did not attempt S. Crocker. It took us 9.5 hours to break out 5.2 miles of trail in knee deep snow. There were several openings in the woods where we had to search for the trail. There was one place below the summit where we lost the AT and bushwacked to regain the trail. The summit sign was completely buried under the snow. |
