Fagin's Hike (Ski) of the Week- Huckleberry Creek

Updated March 9,2017

This east of the town Greenwater off of Hwy 410. This can be a very icy road with marginal snow coverage however this year is providing LOTS of snow . You can go as long or as short as you want on FS 73 and the grade is very gentle. You can also snowshoe. Thanks to Curtis Allen for the photos and this was skied last Sunday March 5.
