Picking away at the 52WAV in winter I did Crawford, Stairs, and Resolution. I did not go to the 3K high point on Resolution. I had anywhere form an 1"-6", plus higher drifts, of unbroken trail to Crawford and Stairs. Pretty good snowshoe track to both though. The Mt Parker Trail to Resolution was unbroken. Hard to say if anyone had been that way in some time. The angle of the sign at the junction of Davis Path, Mt Parker Tr. and the old spur trail Resolution Shelter is a bit confusing. It looked like a few had headed down it for a short ways thinking that was Davis Path. Mt Parker Tr. was tough to follow. Many spruce traps along the way. Was stuck good up to my waste just feet from the open ledge. |
