| Comments: |
The AT is in great condition to both Crockers. The Redington "Bushwack" was flagged the whole way, so there isn't much guess work. The herd path is beat into the ground, so even without flagging it's not much of an issues to follow. On the summit the summit canister is just off the clearing to the right. There is a blue flag indicating the side trail to the canister. |
