 | Comments: |
The last quarter mile to the summit is the toughest. Whoever broke out the trail initially ran into a wall of snow and was forced to abandon the trail which has been obliterated by the last snowstorm. The snowshoe track (bushwhack) goes far to the right of Jackson, almost appearing to be heading over to Webster before reaching the Webster Cliff Trail, and then coming up to the summit from the back side. |
