 | Comments: |
Trail well packed out to Jackson, though loose snow here and there. Our group broke out the Webster Cliff Trail from Jackson to Webster, but it is rough and we had difficulties with deep spruce traps. The snow pack is 5' plus on the ridge. We also broke out the Webster Branch which is now somewhat packed with loose snow. |
