Cog RR Cutoff, Jewell, Gulfside, Jefferson Loop
Jewell Trail in good condition until tree line. Variable snow above tree line, ranging from hardpack to drifts. Microspikes worked for us all day. Trails were hard to follow at spots on the ridge but should be a bit more obvious now. Poor visibility when we got to the ridge. Had to use Trailforks to find the Gulfside Trail. Eventually clouds lifted and we had a beautiful undercast day above tree line. Had the trails and mountain to ourselves. |
