Slippery Creek is a great snowshoe trip off of Highway 410 near small town of Greenwater. You can snowshoe or ski if good ski skills. First 2 miles is hard snow then good snow above.
Thanks to Dennis Long for photos and route!

Driving Directions: From Enumclaw drive on State Highway 410 east and just before you get to the small town of Greenwater turn left on logging road FS 7125. This is just past MP 42. If you reach the town you have gone too far. Follow logging road FS 7125 then bear left which go about 1.5 miles and park at gate. However in the middle of winter need to park a mile before the gate.
Trail Directions: Follow road to point at about 3900 feet which is 1800 foot gain and 4 miles one way. See our track below.
Always bring map-compass-GPS as these directions are the best estimates.
