This short trail paralels Crawford Path, climbing over the bare, flat summit of Mt. Eisenhower, which provides magnificent views. In 2009 the AMC trail crew installed new wooden steps and ladders on the trail. Mt Eisenhawer Loop diverges from from Crawford Path 4.3 mi. from Mt. Clinton Rd. at the south edge of the summit dome, climbs easily for 0.1 mi., then turns sharply left in a flat area and ascends steadily steadily to the summit at 0.4 mi. At the summit is a large cairn and a defined circular viewing area to protect the surrounding alpine vegetation. From there Mt. Eisenhower Loop descends moderately to a ledge overlooking Red Pond (more a bog than a pond) then drops steeply by switchbacks over ledges, passes through grassy sag just to the left of Red Pond, and finally climbs briefly past a jct. on the left with Edmands Path to rejoin Crawford Path on a small rocky knob.
