Steens
Mountain
Fish Lake area
in winter.
Steens Mountain has some
of the best snow and most extensive high elevation terrain for
cross country skiing in the Northwest. Here we're skiing in March
at 7,600 feet a little above Fish Lake. Note the extensive aspen
forests nearby, their white bark and twisted shapes beautiful
to ski through at this season, and even more fantastic to revisit
in their gold glory in October!
