Description:
This trip offers varied terrain with good views in clear weather of the surrounding Cascade peaks. From Little Nash Sno-Park we’ll ascend a moderate slope to the base of Sand Mountain. If the weather and snow conditions are favorable, we’ll continue along the road to Sand Mountain Lookout. If not, we will complete a lower elevation loop following a lightly traveled snowmobile trail. If the Sand Mt. road is not skiable, we may ascend a steeper, alternate route. Skiers who own climbing skins should bring them.
NOTE. Drivers are in scarce supply for winter trips. If you are able to assist with transporting skiers, please indicate your availability. This will help ensure that everyone interested in the trip can participate. Thank you.
