Comments
Comments: My first time on this section of trail. It's a nice steady ramp up to Crocker. Trail in good shape and easy to follow. There was a hint of previous passage, possibly a skier. The crust bordered on supporting me but I broke through about 25% of the time. I tried to even it out a bit on the way back but it should be in great shape from the three guys I met on the way out. I explained the route to Redington so hopefully they find and pack that down as well.
