 | Comments: |
The Webster Cliff Trail is rough in places but has rewarding outlooks. A nice alternative to Mt Jackson from the Webster-Jackson Trail approach.
Surfaces were dry. This trail would be more challenging in wet conditions.
Clouds were banked up against the spine of the White Mountains limiting views. Blue skies to the southeast.
Lots of hikers out today including AT thru hikers, families, and Nancy and Charley. |
