Route: Webster-Jackson Trail

Lower trail was fairly dry with a growing carpet of leaves in places. Some mud further in, and then further in elevation. Scramble ledges were mostly dry. No snow or ice encountered this evening.

Foliage is past peak at this point, but still decent in places (though the incoming storm will likely change that).
