Lost and Found
Lost and Found: We found a Hillsound Crampon Pro, right foot, looked to be sized for a large boot. We placed it on the trailhead sign at the start of the Webster-Jackson Trail. We also reported it to the front desk at the Highland Center. Hopefully,the owner will return to find it.  
 
Comments
Comments: A warm, sunny day on Jackson. The snowpack is dwindling, but we were able to wear snowshoes all the way to the bottom of the bare summit cone, where we barebooted to the top. Hillsounds worked fine for the descent with care taken on the softening icy sections.
