Big Four Ice Caves, Big Four Ice Caves Snowshoe — Sunday, Jan. 11, 2026

The road past the gate was covered in a few inches of snow of and went up to about 1 1/2 to 2 feet at the summer trailhead. Snow was packed on the road and entire trail, snowshoes aren't needed. Brought yakraks but didn't use them. On the trail there's a couple trees down but they were easy to get around. At the caves there was ~3 feet of snow off the trail. Lots of avalanches coming down the mountain and no one else there. On the way back the masses showed up, a couple dozen people heading up the road and the turnaround was full of parked cars 😑. Great day in the mountains though.
