These forest trails are pack groomed for skiing and snowshoeing during the winter. The trails traverse some slight grades along the way. The 0.7 mile Powerline Trail leads to a 5 mile loop bisected by the 1.4 mile Ridgeline Trail, providing options for treks of various distances. There are great opportunities to see wildlife, and there is very good birding.
