Ascent Trip Report

We had climbed from Webster to Jackson on a loop trail, we went up Webster blazing our way up because the trail was unmaintained and unmarked in areas. we couldn't find a trail over from Webster to Jackson, so we blazed our way over there to the peak hoping to bag a 4,000 footer. we had made it to the top, from there it was easy going as far as the trails. it was have been a great hike up if we started on that Mt. but overall it was a great hike and i loved it.
