snowmobile trail (C4A).
This short snowmobile corridor runs just under a mile and a half through the park's winter trail network. Built for motorized winter use, the route is typically groomed when conditions allow and sees recreational traffic from December through early spring. Like most snowmobile trails in the region, it's closed to motorized use during the off-season but may be open to hiking and mountain biking where posted.
