| Comments: |
Webster Cliff Trail was free of ice or snow from Rt 302 to Webster. Long patches of ice, snow, and rottng monorail were in the cols betwen Webster , Jacksn, and Pierce. We intended to hike down the Jackson BR but didn't due to reports of ice from hikers on Jackson's summit. Hiking off the summit toward Pierce was OK with traction. Mizpah Cutoff was also slippery but improved even from Saturday. Crawford Path below 3,000' was dry. Lots of hikers enjoying the trails- beautiful day... |
