| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Eisenhower trail dry and well maintained. Two washouts on the Dry River trail above the falls but easily passed. Beyond the dry river shelter there are stretches of good trail but the trail becomes increasingly rugged and the last mile to mile and a half up Oakes gulf are very steep and rocky over big boulders. There were no significant blow-downs and there is evidence of fairly recent sawing of logs to clear the trail.

| Comments: |
Started at Edmonds path parking and finished at Ammo ravine parking, up over Oakes gulf to lake of the clouds hut and down. 12 mile point to point and 5000+ feet of elevation gain-a strenuous hike. |
