Running Eagle Falls Bridge installed 8/8/11. Easy hike, the bridge to cross the creek might not be installed until August, 2011. Nice view of Running Eagle Falls and Rising Wolf Mountain. Some wildflowers. No snow on the trail or anywhere around as of 6-22-11. I biked from the Running Eagle Trail parking lot May 21, 2011, at that time there were six foot snow berms at the parking lot and Two Medicine Lake was completely frozen. The park service lists this as a handicap accesible trail. Next year when I bike to Two Medicine I'll bring my snowshoes and get some pics of Running Eagle Falls with snow all around it. This parking lot tends to fill up fast, but as the hike is so short the turnover rate is fairly high.
