Customer Reviews
There was still snow and it was a tight fit to drive thru but the road ends at Beashore and you can't pass thru so you either park and enjoy the view or play in the snow that's left which is about 6 ft high on the side of the road. You can't go right it's snowed in you can go left or head back down. Either way it's a beautiful place to go and enjoy the scenery just for the day. 😃😊
If you can find it there is a platform overlooking the meadow. The trail may have trees fallen on it but the platform is near the road.
It's just a parking lot with pit toliets...enjoy the go!!
I love this place...
It's a gamble whether the bathrooms are clean or not.
