In Dec. when I did the Eleanor/Flora/Inferno/Mercur loop there was a huge log across the
road after the first switchback.... sounds like it's cut and Apr. 15th will be able to get to Shingle TH.
Few people hike the trail from Eleanor to Shingle. Amazingly it's in stellar condition (hiked it
twice in December). Hopefully you at least hiked the trail to Eleanor TH from the dam
(turn left after crossing the dam and you can't miss it... hahaha) (seriously... the first time
we ever went that-a-way... we did it in the dark... so it aint that bad).
(however, there is a trail jct. mid way b/t Cherry and Eleanor... the left one going to Shingle trail...
the right one to the Eleanor TH... but really... they are both so close... it shouldn't matter).
Anywho... glad you had a good time
