Get a first hand look at how an underground mine “could” affect OUR Wilderness. Experienced cross-country skiers only! Steep in places, skins are sometimes needed for going up. Starting out on the Ross Cr. Rd, 398, then on an old mining rd. We will ski up several switchbacks to a huge mine vent, and if enough ambition / daylight permits, continue on towards Mt. Vernon. Offering great views of the Bull River Valley, Bull Lake, and some of the Cabinet Mountains.

This will be an ALL DAY trip, starting early!!! Everyone should be prepared for any weather conditions, with adequate clothing, food, water, headlamps, skins for skis or snowshoes to change in to. Level of difficulty, “Very difficult.”
