 | Comments: |
Must have been 100 people on the trail today all enjoying themselves and all properly equipped! Will confirm earlier report - Crawford path is a packed highway easy going and perfect for hiking; snowshoes not needed and boots or spikes would work. I'll add to the prior report that the short stretch of the Webster Cliff trail up to the actual summit was solid ice so light traction is advised in this stretch. |
