Snowmobiling Wolf Creek Pass: Exploring Trails & Meadows | Family Ride Dec. 2024
We are on a mission to go further back on Wolf Creek Pass than we ever have before. We packed a picnic, loaded the sleds, and made it back behind Wolf Creek Ski Area before we turned around. We explored several different groomed trails and open meadows. We also talk about the history of our snowmobiles, and all of the repairs that had to be done to get them up and running.

    I really like your videos and the way you do everything as a family and also the scripture. We had 16 of our family members go over the Alpine Loop in late July. BTW, what your husband pointed out as American Basin in the video was not American Basin. It is just the valley on the east side of Cinnamon Pass. American Basin has a unique cliff formation on the south end of the basin, and you can see it from a distance in your video as you approach the road split between American Basin on the left and Cinnamon Pass on the right. You can also see Handies Peak on the left side of the basin which is one of the 14ers visible from the Alpine Loop. I hope you and your family continue to enjoy God's creation together and keep making great videos.

    Unlike whitetail, mule deer are called by the amount of points they have. A 4x4 mule deer is like a 8 point whitetail but is considered 4 by 4 instead of the total points. Also on a mule deer the eye guard isn’t considered a point when talking about them. So a nice 4x4 mule deer with eye guards isn’t a 5x5 and rather is still a 4x4.
