 | Comments: |
A perfect day for this hike. Didn't see a single cloud, crystal clear skies. Phenomenal views from the summits of both Jackson and Webster. Most of the trails were manageable without much issue. Quite a few people on the trail to Jackson, so no issues in trail access. The Webster Cliff Tr was trying at times, required a bit of a gut check, but acting based on instinct took us where we needed go well enough. |
