 | Comments: |
Trail is well traveled and packed with a couple of areas of ice before the upper intersection with Yellow Jacket. After Yellow Jacket and the bridge there weren't any fresh human prints until the ridge. Blowdowns were between the bridge and the ridge and a small one on the way to the Dome. The Sandwich Mountain Trail was very well packed. I saw another hiker coming from the Dome heading toward Jennings/Noon. They must have come up Drakes because there weren't any prints from any other direction. |
