| Comments: |
The Webster-Jackson Trail, at least to Mt. Jackson, was packed like a sidewalk from bottom to top. I easily did the whole hike in light traction, even as the snow on the trail started to soften in the afternoon. There was a small area of ice on the scramble below the top that could be an issue if the snow/slush covering it melts. |
