There are multiple snowshoe loops at Big Hill. Generally, the two most accessible trails are track packed for easier use and navigation. Please do not walk on the nordic ski trails. The damage can be very hard to remove depending on conditions. Please donate if using the snowshoe trails as we spend significant time, miles, and fuel track packing the trails.

Snowshoe Trail Descriptions
Snowshoe Loop- This is a 1 mile loop that leaves from the warming hut, then parallels east along the test plot fence. Dropping down the hill, you reach the intersection that can take you around the Snowshoe Connector (right turn) or back up towards the warming hut (left turn). You will have to climb back out either way, so be prepared. The snowshoe trail ties into the fat bike trail which then leads you back to the warming hut. This route is usually track packed.
Snowshoe Connector- If you take a right at the bottom of the snowshoe route, you will travel on the snowshoe connector. This takes you near the lower A Loop intersection, then up "old" A Loop. You can cut across the meadow to B Loop in two spots. You'll climb the hill back to the upper A intersection area, then to the meadow and warming hut. This route is usually track packed.
B Loop- This is a steep, climbing loop that ties into the Snowshoe Connector. This is ungroomed with deep snow. Only seasonsed snow shoers should attempt this loop.
