The Sherwins Trailhead provides year round access for outdoor recreation activities. You will find several multi-use non-motorized trails near the trailhead, including the Mammoth Rock Trail and the Meadow Trail. In the winter the trailhead becomes a hub for backcountry skiing, snowplay and OSV use. The Sherwins Trailhead offers easy access to excellent powder skiing in treed, north facing slopes. A short distance from the heart of town, this trailhead has ample parking and great views.

Avalanche Forecast for 11/27/2024
- AVALANCHE FORECAST: Over the past five days, two storms brought periods of heavy snowfall, strong winds, and dangerous avalanche conditions to the region. As the weather settles, avalanches breaking in new and wind-drifted snow will become less likely. Be prepared to assess the recent snow for signs of instability, like cracking underfoot, before venturing into avalanche terrain. We have very limited information about the snowpack at mid and upper elevations. If old snow has formed weak layers near the base of the snowpack, you can expect avalanche conditions to settle more slowly. Find out More
