Sherman Peak Loop — Saturday, Jan. 13, 2018

Eastern Washington > Okanogan Highlands/Kettle River Range
Sno Park not plowed had to park at pullout

Group of 8 headed out for a Snowshoe trip breaking trail on the first half of our trip.   A few areas we had to route find, and watching for cut tree branches really helped.  Do check avalanche conditions before heading out, we saw no signs and crossed the “bowl” area one at a time safely. After a viewpoint lunch break halfway, we were lucky to have trail broken for us from people leaving the cabin at snow peak and the rest of their Trail was broken by us. We had to inform them that their car was bermed in at sno Park lot, and had not been plowed as of 9am, we had to park in pull out. They were prepared and all had shovels to dig the Subaru out if needed, lot was plowed and they were gone by the time our group made it out. Easy going from there , for both groups and enjoyed a sun filled day on this great loop around Sherman Peak.
