I started the morning from the Mizpah Spring Hut and hiked the southern Presidential Range. It is a steep, rocky climb from the hut to Pierce. I took the Mt Eisenhower loop trail over Eisenhower, and the Mt Monore loop trail over Little Monroe and up to Monroe. From the summit of Monroe I turned around, went back over Little Monroe, and continued on the Crawford Path back to 302. Eisenhower had some small scrambles on both sides. Both Little Monroe and Monroe have some large boulders to hop across. Mt. Clinton Rd. was closed for paving so I didn't consider the Edmands Path for my descent; otherwise this could be a good option. The weather was amazing: sunny, warm, low wind; a wonderful day on the southern Presidential Range! I'll write a blog post and create a video of this hike soon. |
