Comments
Comments: Loved the Jewell Trail! It has a little bit of everything! Bouldering a little tricky in spots and the two sets of cairns also a little confusing. We followed the older, taller cairns. Very slippery during the entire hike. We found the metal "pin" on the summit of Jefferson and that made #48 for me after a safe descent!
