This is a multi-day hike that takes you behind Mount Decoeli to a high sub-alpine plateau. The route is varied between creek crossings, rock moraines and tussocks. There are multiple places to camp along the route, and a day hike the next day or overnight trip to Kimberley Meadows is also an option.

Figure I’d check out the trail; curious to know what it’s like in winter. The tiny lot at the trailhead is buried under many feet of snow (park in the clearing right off the highway and start from there). Be advised - although a single lane path has been tramped in the snow at the trailhead, it...
