Comments
Comments: Got a late start which worked out perfectly as cloudy skies starting out cleared by the time we hit the ledges before Crawford and over to Resolution. Nice and dry up to Crawford spur, spots of mud in usual places and one pool of water in stretch over to Resolution but rocks in place to get you across. One small patch of wet rock on Mt parker trail below the first ledges. Lots of folks out today but mostly going to and coming from Crawford. Past the spur we met 2 hikers coming down, 2 at the resolution summit, one solo and a family heading up to camp. Met Donnie S another regular NETC poster coming back from his trip to stairs and resolution - pleasure to stop and chat! Unfortunately no luck for us either on resolution finding the northern view ledges - we followed every hard path/bushwhack we could find with all ending in brush or trees though we did find the highpoint. For those needing a snack, still a lot of blueberries along the trail.
