Winter Hiking - Snowshoeing at Eveline State Recreation Site

Snowshoeing on Eveline Trail


Stats 
Distance:  1.4 miles         Difficulty: Easy           Time:  1 hr 10 min

Summary
On 17 Jan 2014 we finally got some much overdue snow and headed to the Eveline State Recreation Site for snowshoeing.  Eveline has trails that are used in both summer and winter.  We tried the trail in summer (Hiking at Eveline State Recreation Site outside Homer); it was time to check it out in winter.  We took the Alpine Meadows Loop. In summer, this loop has excellent views of the Portlock and Dixon Glaciers.  The views are even better in winter.  The Alaska Department of Resources web site for the recreation area is Eveline State Recreation Site.



Opinion

This is a very nice snowshoe.
