 Permit: Discover Pass

 Length: 6.1 Miles Roundtrip

 Elevation: 1250 ft, highest point 4250 ft

 Difficulty: Hard

 

Description:

Copper Creek hut is not visitie

 

Current Conditions:

Steep and muddy forest roads make it highly advisable to have tire chains or AWD/4WD. The trail system is currently operating out of the Upper Sno-Park and the snow pack at the trailhead is at 3 inches, deepening to several feet at High Hut. The trail is ski-able about a half mile out of the parking lot and higher; however, the trail is currently best enjoyed by snow shoe. Incoming Winter weather this week bring the hope of a deeper base, but also the threat of worse road conditions. Don’t forget tire chains!

 

Directions:

From SR 7 in Elbe, turn east on SR 706 (National Park Road). In Ashford, turn north onto Forest Road 92. Continue on and park at the lower or upper Road 92 Sno-Park depending the snow level.
