| Comments: |
Foot paths on all trails. Ice on most trails - from the melt and freeze of the last few days. Inch on top of ice down low. Maybe two inches up high. Light traction is right. Running water on trail here and there. Cold, very windy day. Both summits were socked in. Wind on Jackson was pretty brutal. Forgot the length of the scramble on top - tough in 40-50 mph wind. But, so grateful to be out and about after 15 mo away from hiking. Saw a handful of people. Just me, snow showers, and wind for the most part |
