FTA Cross Country Skiers and Other Snow Trail Users

Snow trails accessed from China Wall, 15 minutes North of Foresthill, are a new, blossoming opportunity for users. Green sticker fees from motorcycles have provided funding for the development of a staging area and grooming of trails during the winter. The Forest Service does the actual trail grooming. When there is enough snow the Foresthill Rd is closed at China Wall and you can cross-country ski or snowmobile up Foresthill Rd for miles. There are also side roads to explore.

In 1996 we had the first Sled Dog races at the site. They are very entertaining and may well become a big event in future years. Many FTA members have helped with the sled dog races.

The FTA, along with the Foresthill Parent Teachers Organization, has sponsored a Community Snow Play Day at China Wall for the past few years. This is lots of fun. We usually have a snowman contest, cookies and hot chocolate, skiing, sledding and more.
