| Comments: |
Initial thought was to do Tom, Field and Willey based on high wind forecast. Got to Highland Center and not a breeze could be felt. Given the blue bird sky, we opted to do Webster/Jackson. A good choice, there was barely a breeze on top. Views were astounding. Trails up and down were all easily done in microspikes. Along the ridge you want snowshoes, quite drifted and deep in places. |
