Comments
Comments: Slightly chilly and very windy. Clear as clear can be. We decided to head to Jax and red line Webster Cliff from the bottom of the notch. We could not have made a better choice. Spectacular views from the cliffs, as long as we could handle the high winds. Trail between Webster and Jax has a nice covering of snow and ice. We used microspikes out and back to Jax. Bare boots from trailhead to Webster. As previously stated the junction sign succumbed to the high winds on Jackson. Great day out with Mike K. 4th time on Jackson and 2nd time on Webster.
