| Comments: |
Hiked it today during the show and it was accumulating fast at the summits and on the Webster Cliff trail. Drifts on the Webster Cliff made trail finding hard at times. I recommend snowshoes on Webster Cliff due to the drifts, the same is true on the Webster Branch of the Jackson-Webster. Branches are very low on Webster branch and WebSter Cliff due to the snowpack, very annoying. Jackson branch is in fantastic shape! Near the summits there was about 6" of new powder. |
