Sharon and I hiked, skied and biked the Sharatin loop from the end of Anton Larson Road. We stashed bikes at the Red Cloud trailhead for our return to the truck.
Packed our skis up the north side Small Creek Trail in light hiking shoes to about 1500ft where we switched to skis just below the waterfalls. Skinned up on the left side to the top and skied down to about 1500ft.elevation to the Red Cloud trail (which has been trimmed and in great shape) a short hike down to the road and bike ride back to our truck. Lots of snow up high, but a bit slushee on the steep South faces in the afternoon. Be careful of slush avalanches. It was a 12 mile loop and took us a leisurely 6 hours.
