12.5 miles of hiking • 4250' elevation gain •

Didn't have a lot of time today, so I picked something close and quick. Got to Herman TH at about 11a with about 35 cars in the lot. I think everyone thought - It's Memorial Day Weekend, Eagle's gonna be packed, lets do Herman. Went past Indian Point and Deadwood Camp to about 3500 where the snow started, so I turned around, went back down to Deadwood and up Deadwood trail, which cuts over to Nick Eaton, and then down.

When I was walking up, I thought about hoofing it up to North Lake, going down Wyeth and back on 400, but decided against it. The snow is getting old!
