The Labarge Snomobile Trail is a hard out-and-back hike in Wyoming's Bridger-Teton National Forest, within the Kemmerer Ranger District and managed by the Forest Service. It runs about 14 miles round trip, with a steady climb that takes you from a starting point near 7,700 feet to a high point of 8,025 feet. The trail's elevation gain is 1,664 feet for the whole trip, and the steepest stretch comes within the first half mile, where the grade reaches about 9%. Late summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from the La Barge weather station, about 19 miles away, show July highs near 83°F and lows around 46°F. That station sits roughly 1,400 feet lower than the trail's high point, so temperatures on the route run cooler. Winters there are harsh, with January highs around 30°F and lows near -2°F. The trip takes about 5.5 hours. Shafer Creek and Little Fall Creek are both within 5 miles. Scaler Guard Station offers camping about 5 miles away, and Graham Peak is about 6 miles off.
