 | Comments: |
3 day hike south to north - finishing on July 20.
I tried to do Mt. Redington as well. I found some herd paths on South Crocker and I let to an old trail with yellow blazes (on the south side). It had clearly been cut - but years ago. The trail let me too much in easterly direction and eventually the undergrowth was almost impenetrable. I gave up. |
