The strong
winds, variable temperatures, and steep slopes of the East Side all
contribute to increased avalanche danger. Since snow conditions and
avalanche hazard are quite changeable, we encourage you to stop by a
visitor center or call the Information Office/Backcountry Office to
discuss your plans. |

Winter Play A winter play area, suitable for sledding, is located at Hidden Valley. However, as described above, conditions are not always safe. In particular, when snow coverage is limited, rocks and logs may not be safely buried. Heavy use at this area, particularly on weekends, can result in icy conditions. Condition reports are made daily, and can be obtained at any visitor center. However, it is your responsibility to inspect an area to ensure it is safe before allowing children to sled or play. Snowmobiling Snowmobiling is allowed along a two mile stretch of the North Supply Access Trail in the southwest corner of the park. This trail connects the town of Grand Lake to a system of National Forest trails adjacent to the park. |
