Location
Here's a nice roadwalk near the snowshoe trails in Blewett Pass. Follow the gradually climbing road through the quiet forest for several miles. Because it's a road, you may encounter snowmobiles, but that also means there's a good track to ski or snowshoe on. If you do elect to snowshoe, please stay to the side and do not walk in existing ski tracks.
