 | Comments: |
Webster-Jackson trail is a white side walk. There are some deep post holes on the sides and a few in the center of the trail, especially in the 1st 0.3 miles. We were able to used trail spikes only up and down, however if I stepped off the beaten trail at all I sank to my knee. Our original plan was to head to Pierce via Mizpah but the trail is entirely socked in with snow drift from the top of Jackson. A late start today meant we did not have the time to break out 2-3 miles of trail. It will wait for another day |
