Mt. Eisenhower

Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.
Looking up the Edmands Path
Route: Edmands Path, Eisenhower Loop, (Mt. Eisenhower), Eisenhower Loop, Edmands Path
Trail was damp from overnight rain with lots of sections of running water (some of which we fixed). Also plenty of slippery exposed ledge from erosion.
Weather was much better than doomsday forecast. Had some sun and blue skies in the morning. Light rain started around 5 PM (whereas forecast the night before showed sizable rain in the AM, tapering off in the PM).
