This is a very nice, relative easy, backcountry ski to Murray Lake. The trail will loop back around to the main road, which you can take back to you car, or just ski back the way you came. There are 2 trails that branch off the main trail and go down to the lake, but the snow tends to be pretty chewed up so getting down to the lake can be dicey, but it can be done.
Access Info
Access this trail by parking at the Beaver Lake trailhead and walk about 50 yards to the west.
