Description
This groomed snow trail offers the visitor panoramic views of the Menatchee drainage, the Wallowas in Oregon, and the Seven Devils in Idaho at the Big Butte/Wenatchee junction. Located at Misery is a snow shelter for use by snow recreationists to warm up at or rest. Further snow play is available along side roads and open ridge tops.
No wheeled traffic allowed on groomed trail.
Sno-Park parking permit required.
These trails are well maintained (snow allowing) for snowmobilers, cross-country skiing, and other winter recreation. The trail is single width groomed and follows a gentle incline in elevation. Three miles from the Sno-Park, a trail junction allows the traveler to turn right and follow the Hogback Road around (Thus avoiding the open ridge route from Wenatchee Guard Station to Wickiup, which drifts terribly from snow blowing up out of the Menatchee drainage.) Four miles from the Sno-Park the trail junctions with the Anatone/Big Butte Road #4304.
