Tips:

  • If you don’t have your own sled, you can book tours directly from sheep mountain lodge – they’ll take you down some great trails, up some mountain passes for good views, and find you a great lake to play around in the snow.
  • It’s worth checking out both north and south sides of the main road if you have time. On the north side, you can climb up a few peaks and enjoy views of multiple mountain ranges, and even skin/double up for some great skiing. On the south side, you’ll find some great lakes and bogs that have deep snow to enjoy.
