Description
During mid-winter months when there is sufficient snow and the lake level is low, thus exposing open and level ground along the shore, you can ski along the southwest shore of Pinecrest Lake. Do not ski on the lake.
The trailhead is on the opposite side of the road from the parking area.
If the snow is not good here, the best alternative tour is the Crabtree Trail Loop of beginner-intermediate difficulty.
