Rain Averse 'Bramblers' Melt Away, Miss Eaton


A hastily planned Sunday morning excursion through Eaton Canyon up to Henninger Flats went off without a hitch and without hikers!

A thick morning mist and threat of rain failed to deter one Brand Rambler (who shall remain nameless) from enjoying a brisk trek to the Flats - making the 6.2 miles round trip and 1600 foot elevation gain in just over 2-1/4 hours.

Visibility was severely limited but the hill hugging clouds made for a magical landscape as the trail snaked up to the forested flats.

Eaton Canyon-to-Henninger Flats truly is a wonderful and convenient weekend hike that promises great views - weather (and planning) permitting.
