Trip Report

Park Butte, Schriebers Meadow Snowshoe & Railroad Grade — Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2026

North Cascades > Mount Baker Area
The road area

Road: Snow and ice on the majority of the forest road.

TH: SNOW PARK PASS required for this time of year. The road is blocked by ecology blocks about 2 miles before the actual TH. There is a small turn around area but it was clogged with other vehicles. No toilet. I arrived at 0900 on a Tuesday and it was pretty busy with snowmobilers. I saw about 15. I was the only hiker.

Trail: You follow snowmobile tracks for a lot of the beginning portion. The snowmobilers are very polite. When I diverted from snowmobile tracks the snow was light and fluffy and I sunk to about shin deep. There were very old tracks. Views were incredible.
