We parked along the road that is the Salmon La Sac Sno Park. Be cognizant of where to park and where not to park: this helps the snowplows do their thing to maintain the area as the winter season progresses.
We watched about 12 snowmobilers prepping their gear as we got our micro spikes (Yak Trax), etc. The trail directs hikers one way and snowmobilers another way so we found our quiet soon after the trailhead.
We hiked in without our snowshoes and there was enough hardpacked snow to make it a worthwhile 4 or 5 mi hike in the bright sunshine and cold. Certainly, we had fun post-holing a couple of times.
We saw under 10 hikers on the trail other than us today.
