It runs between about 2,040 ft and 2,200 ft above sea level, with roughly 420 ft of climbing one way. It is mapped as a hard route. It is groomed for classic and skate skiing. The nearest town is Côte, about 11 miles northeast of the start. For camping, Pickerel Point Campground and St. Michael’s Camp are within about 6 miles. There are 10 other mapped trails within about 3 miles, so you can combine or extend the outing. Distances, elevations and the trail shape here come from OpenStreetMap and the Copernicus 90 m elevation model. Grooming and snow conditions change daily, so check the local trail report before you go.
