 | Comments: |
Crawford trail was packed down nicely from the lot up to the summit of Pierce. Trail from the junction between Pierce to Eisenhower was an absolute mess. Almost everyone we saw coming down, including a large group from AMC, only wore spikes. This section was a posthole nightmare - thanks for that. We wore our snowshoes the entire hike but there was no way the two of us could repair that damage. I'm sure the warm temps this week and rain will make this section extra fun!! |
