Scattered markers refer to the Howard Eaton Trail, but it is no longer maintained. A log-framed sign erected when the trail was dedicated on July 19, 1923, with a photo of Eaton on his favorite mount, Danger, and information about his ties to the park, was eventually removed and not replaced.

That is really quite sad. :O(
That’s really too bad. I have read that the original trail from Fishing Bridge to LeHardy Rapids is gorgeous and home to many bears. It’s definitely on my list of places to visit, maintained or not.
This place is famously known for skiing, right? That’s really too bad. I wonder about the sudden disinterest to maintain it.
Its sad when historic trails become forgotten and lost!
