Beautiful day to hike the Crockers and Mt Redington. The road in wasn't bad with caution and low speed. I had no issue with my average sedan. All trails were dry and in great shape.The bushwhack was pretty straight forward to follow after taking a right before S viewpoint and following boundary line towards Mt Crocker for approximately 200 feet then bearing left at stone cairn. It was nice chatting with several hikers today, and unbelievably running into a hiker I often run into coincidentally in the White Mtns. Im continually amazed at what a small world it is! |
