Between the trailhead and the Eagle Cliff viewpoint, the trail was in great shape. Although I can't say for certain, I would anticipate that the entire length of the trail is probably in good shape. Just as I was starting my hike, I met the Trail Adopter who told me he had just finished doing maintenance on the trail.
Although you can follow the Eagle Cliff Trail all the way to Red Hill, my modest goal for this day was only to go to Eagle Cliff. I had never been there, and so I was uncertain exactly what to expect. First of all, this trek took much less time than I had anticipated. After only about 20 minutes of hiking, I arrived at the main viewing area on Eagle Cliff. My second surprise was the vastness of the view. Not only were there the anticipated views of Squam Lake, but there was a fantastic vista of a huge array of peaks in the Sandwich Range.
