Artist Point Snowshoe — Tuesday, Jan. 10, 2023

Snowshoed yesterday to Artist’s Point. The road was cleared, with just a bit of snow in the last couple of miles. Toilets at parking lot were open, but no tp. Put snow shoes on from the car and never took them off. Started towards the meadows, but decided to return to parking lot and follow the trail that skirts the ski slope. It looked avalanchy from the meadow, with lots of snow slide evidence, so I thought it would be easier not to climb from there. The path is patted down most of the way and you can follow it. Considering it was a perfect day, I didn’t see a lot of people around. Most were coming up in the afternoon for the sunset. There was evidence of small avalanches so choose your path with care. In my opinion this is the best snowshoe in Washington. At least, while I’m there I always think so.
