 | Comments: |
Well packed Crawford Path from 302 up to Pierce, most hikers were using microspikes. Webster Cliff trail from Pierce to Jackson was minimally broken and we postholed frequently not using snowshoes.
Also, many bent over trees that require crawling under. Webster-Jackson trail down from Jackson to 302 was well packed. |
