I should probably add this report to Eaton Lake Trail as it was basically what I did but I had the intention to do Mount Grant but things didn't go as it was planned. The snow conditions didn't look good and it was deteriorating quickly with the day heat. The terrain looked untamed - some ribbons but no trail. It looked too rough. I turned back on my first hard step so I cannot comment on how difficult it would have been.
However, the trail to Eaton Lake was in good conditions except the bridges. There were 3 broken bridges out of 4. It adds some difficulty. I also saw a couple with a dog, who refused to cross the last broken bridge. The lake was still covered by a crust of ice. I should also say that I liked Eaton Trail. It is a forest hike but it is a nice one.
