I was originally thinking of an easy hike over to Jackson, but, I wasn't wearing winter boots. I just had low-cuts and the springlike snow was just too deep and I already totally soaked my feet. So, I turned around a bit past Webster. This probably wasn't a great idea for a hike in the rain/mist because of all the scrambles. I totally forgot how many scrambles there are. Still, it was fun to peer into the great white void down from the cliffs. Didn't see a soul all day!!! Shocking, I know!!!! I do like this trail and have only been on this section once so I figured it was worth a revisit!!! Very slow hike trying to watch my feet the whole time - the 6 mile RT took me around 5 hours with no stops.... no speed records today but then again, I didn't damage myself - yay!! |
