| Comments: |
A spectacular day to be out and to get above tree line. The views were great in all directions with an especially awesome view of the Presi's. There was plenty of running water on the descent from Webster back to the junction with the cutoff for Jackson. All was manageable. Some might find poles helpful for navigating this stretch. Very little water on Jackson side of the trail and minimal mud. |
