Quick jaunt up Willard. Trail was like a sidewalk which made for very quick hiking out and back. Spikes only the entire way. We were well protected from the whipping wind that was blowing up the Notch, somehow even at the summit, although it was still a bit brisk on top. Based on the # of cars along 302 we thought it would be a very crowded trail. Most people must've been going for WTF as we probably only saw 15-20 people out and back on Willard. Great little hike and as always a great day in the mountains! |
