We parked at Seven Dwarfs lodge and then hiked to the end of the road. At the end of the road you will see a bridge. Cross the bridge with no snow shoes or spikes. There is a sign asking you not to. When you cross the bridge you need to walk up the road a few hundred feet. You will see a green trail sign on the left. Take that trail. Don’t take the first path as it is posted as private property. At the end of the trail you will hit a snow mobile track. Take a left. Walk down the road until you hit a bridge. Once you cross it you will see the North Twin trail. Walk down the trail for about a mile. When the trail goes to cross the River..... don’t cross it. Keep to the left and follow the River. There is supposed to be a tree with notches in it a few hundred yards down the trail. We didn’t find it. We ended up seeing a path on the left. Then checked Gaia GPS and found it marked there as the Fire Warden trail. We followed the trail until the top of the mountain. The conditions were great. Picked snow and no ice. Wonderful blue ski day. Definitely wear snow shoes as people had posted and the snow is deep. |
