Black Butte (10 miles)

Broken Top (10 miles)

Fish Lake Historic Site (1 mile) *

This is definitely one of those Sunday afternoon rambles with the kids, with an  opportunity to catch up on some Oregon pioneer history along the way. Winter’s  really the only time to see Fish Lake anyway, since in the summer the darned  thing often dries up completely. But in late winter it’s a lovely 1-mile-long  lake that you can certainly loop around. If you’re going to make this a stop on  a trip between Bend and Eugene be sure to get a look at the old cabins and  structures that date back well into the nineteenth century.

Hayrick Butte (4 miles)

Isaac Nickerson Loop (4 miles) *

The Ikenick Sno-Park, whose name is a marginally clever short form of the name  Isaac Nickerson, accesses some great, well-marked beginner loops. There’s even  the prospect of a skier–snowshoers’ shelter getting built on this particular  loop. Until then, the best part of this trail, which you can do in about 2  hours, is a view of the Three Sisters mountains, which is worth putting on the  cover of a scenic calendar. Rarely do you get such a perfectly framed view of  those three beautiful mountains. That also gives you a hint of why the forest  service and local touring groups plan to put a shelter here.

Maxwell Butte (8 miles)

Old McKenzie Pass (Highway 242) (12.5 miles)

Potato Hill (4 miles)

Prairie View Loop (5.5 miles) *

This is a good trail to take some snowshoe “newbies,” or beginners, on because  of the negligible elevation gain, moderate terrain, and impressive views of the  surrounding Oregon peaks. Also, even though the views of the mountains are at  times stunning, you’re never far from the highway if things go wrong for some  reason. The Prairie View Loop is one of those routes that makes good use of some  haphazard land management. The route weaves in and out of clear cuts and  regrowing logged areas and also uses logging roads for some of the trails.

Sisters Traverse (30 miles)

South Sister (10 miles)

Tam McArthur Rim / Three Creek Lake (13 miles)
