Mount Resolution

Trail: Davis Path, Crawford Spur

Conditions: Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular, Snow - Unpacked Powder, Snow - Drifts

“The beginning of the trail was packed down, but people turned around not far into the trail. Two of us broke out the rest of the trail to Crawford. We attempted to head to Stairs and Resolution, but only made it 0.3 miles from the Crawford Junction. At 0.3 miles from the junction snow was consistently waist deep, so we decided to call it quits for the day. Definitely need snowshoes for this one. There's a lot of snow up there.”

“Bareboot or spikes up to Crawford; too many exposed rocks for snowshoes there. Past Crawford, the snow is light powder so snowshoes were helpful on the way to stairs and resolution but not totally necessary. The Stairs trail was a little narrow and over overgrown (ducking and dodging low branches). On the way to Resolution, we were able to pass through the icy slab going up, but it’s definitely very sketchy and dangerous. But some hero broke out a bushwhack to the left of the slab that we used on the way down and that was a lot better. From Mount resolution to the south knob was not yet broken out, so we broke trail on that section with snowshoes. The view from the knob was very expansive. No real issues with wind past Crawford. The walk out felt very long, pack a positive attitude…”
